Sarah Van Marcke

Sarah Van Marcke controls her photographic work with a highly demanding and refined care. She rarely focuses on a chaotic nature, but rather on situations and objects that are firmly determined by a human filter. How buildings and objects appear to us is culturally determined. They are subject to functional requirements, industrial parameters and fashions. They are linked to time and to their surrounding area. Van Marcke approaches those phenomena in a detached and uncanny way, so they suddenly start spinning in a framed and strange stillness.
