From Rick Coulby - Asger Carlsen




This image is from Asger Carlsen's series "Wrong". Carlsen plays with our understanding of the human form. He aims to disrupts our understanding of our own reality by creating impossible forms constructed from multiple images. In their final form they exist as psuedo sculptures but sit within the medium of photography. The forms remind me alot of the figures depicted in paintings by Francis Bacon. The fact that his aim to toy with our own conceptions of reality the work is undeniably uncanny.
