The artist works from scenes showing sittings for photographs in colonial movies from the 20s. ” I call those scenes ‘photographic instants’. The viewer may see how puzzled, angry, curious and shy people get as they face a camera(…) Moments of encounters with individuals, but also between cultures, ideas and times.” (Fiona Tan)
