Exhibition, 2017-2020

Exhibition is an attempt to create a portrait of my father through the things in his apartment. The project appropriates the style of an exhibition catalogue and the portrait is read through the images, the titles,  years and an interview. The appropriation of an exhibition catalogue is a comment on existing hierarchies; among objects but also in relation to which stories are considered valuable enough to tell.
