059 Jeff falling
Digital Photography, Human figure, Mixed technique, 5.08x6.77x2.5cm
059 Jeff faling is part of a photographic serie called U.F.O.
Unidentified flying object (commonly abbreviated as UFO) is any real or apparent flying object which cannot be identified by the observer and which remains unidentified after investigation.
This work, more than an investigation about UFO, is a research about the concept of visibility.
The technique is that of appropriation: the pictures I use are family snapshots mainly taken from Internet.
What I did is a very minimal act to introduce in the picture a small dot, a small picture of a UFO that I have been taken from Internet. The concept of author is almost denied. The principal element of the image is small, almost invisible inside the frame.
The intention was to put in question the truthfulness of the picture. Is like I put a virus in the picture and I advice the viewer to be careful and to not believe too much in what he sees. Is like I made visible, in a explicit way, what always is invisible in a photograph: the differences of photographs from reality. The outside did get inside as a disruptive element. The mimesis of the scenes is put in question.
