LAY OUT
My research aims at questioning the value of documentary photography through a process of reconstruction of reality.
The subjects of the Lay Out series originate from photos found online on real-estate listing websites; the research started by going through an incredible amount of amateur photos on these platforms; I then selected a few, making them mine by reproducing them in the form of dioramas.
Once saved, in fact, I seized their textures, their objects, and recreated their spaces by using paper models of different sizes, and finally shot them.
