The work consists of two ceiling lamp shades, one made of stone and the other of glass, used water bowls. In each floated a photograph, which gradually dissolved until the image disappeared from it, leaving photo material fragments in it’s bottom and photographic paper still floating.
One photograph was a self-portrait, and the other a landscape photograph from Auschwitz. Both were shot with my camera during a highschool memorial trip to Poland in 2001.
On their back, the printed date of the self-portrait was September 9th, and on the Auschwitz image was September 11th, 2001.
Both bowls were transfered back to the studio to complete their dissolving process.
