// Muzle Fire Exposed Stockings //

2014
What is with all the excitement around a beautiful leg in nylon stockings? The sight of women legs was hidden for centuries, although this tabu just confirmed/justified the lust.
   In this series I collect hosiery and take image of them like a lepidopterist collects and studies butterflies. The works are based on two technical issues connected with traditional analogue photography. The light sensitive materials darken after being exposed to light, burning gunpowder produces light. For those who are familiar with the photogram process the results can be a taken for granted, but these images were exposed with firing tree blank ammunitions from a gun.
   This technical process of the image making raises multiple interpretations of different ideas, but all connected with the notions of brutality and fragility.
