Between Suicide and Travel

Photo series, 2026, each 60cmx45cm

The photo series ‘Between Suicide and Travel’ borrows its title from a statement by the well-known Italian artist Lucio Fontana, who is best known for his iconic slashed paintings. Fontana said that at one point in his life he had to choose between suicide and travel. He chose the latter. The photo series consists of four medium-format photographs of travel motifs, each of which – in reference to Fontana – is traversed by a red cut. The photo series is available in two versions: one edition in which the lines are digitally superimposed on the images, and another edition with analogue baryta prints in which the lines are drawn by hand with red ink.
