Rites de passage (rites of passage) (1994 - 1998/2001)
Term from ethnology; coined by A. van Gennepp, Les rites de passage, Paris, 1909 denotes rites that accompany the transition to a new stage of life or community. These are usually acts associated with purification and symbolism of death and resurrection. Birth, sexual maturity/initiation, dying and death rites.
Each photograph marks a transition from the moment to the past. Photography therefore itself becomes a kind of rite de passage, a reality lying before the camera is transformed into a pictorial reality, something that exists only in the moment into something permanent. As in ceremonial acts (rites), death plays an essential role in photography (after R. Barthes "Camera Lucida").
The work is conceptualized as a book and relates associatively to this theme, but will also be shown in the form of an exhibition.
