Stalen geraamte 1931 - 1937

Here's a collection of black and white photographs, pasted on a page, its unknown author and date inviting curiosity about the images depicted. I can’t help but imagine the photographer, maybe a bit awkward, trying to capture these steel structures. There’s a rawness to the composition, an almost naive quality that I find endearing. It’s like they’re saying, “Here it is, in all its messy glory.” I can almost feel the photographer's breath on the lens, the click of the shutter, as if time itself is being pressed onto the photographic plate. Think about what it means to frame something, to choose what to include and exclude. The artist is always asking themselves ‘what if?’ It's like a conversation between the artist and the world, a dance of intention and accident. We are all having the same conversation, the same dialogue, with our own work and with the work of those who came before us.
