Barbara Probst (*1964, Munich) examines the photographic medium with different approaches yet offering new perspectives on how we perceive realities. Her multi-part photographic series and tableaus, consisting of up to 12 individual images, capture a moment simultaneously from different perspectives. The individual images are so different that the context is only slowly revealed.
For Probst, this splitting of the moment into a series of images is a means of exploring the ambiguity inherent in every photographic image: "The story is about the same moment - but there are many stories, and one is not more important than the other: They have the same value. They say different things but they are all true. (...) I have thought of my work as political because it reveals the idea that we are all subjective and the way we look at things is very different and not necessarily right or wrong." - Barbara Probst
Lilly Lulay (*1985, Frankfurt Main) is known for works that examine photography as a cultural tool that forms an integral part of daily life. Perfectly aware of todays overproduction of images Lulay uses own and other peoples photographs as "raw material".
Applying a variety of techniques, that range from laser cutting to embroidery, from installation to collage Lulay turns photographs into palpable objects. With her work she investigates on the influence that photographic media have (and have had) on social behaviour and mechanisms of individual and collective perception.
