Finn Thrane
This comes from an Image by a photographer called Finn Thrane. I really like the idea of splitting imagery over two frame and printing them as one. I think this example is particularly good but you can see other examples some more engineered than others at https://www.lensculture.com/finn-thrane
Lorena Guillén Vaschetti
These images all come from a series entitled Historia, memoria y silencios (unopened). They are photographs of Lorena's own family history, images taken by members of her Italian family on holiday's and trips. It's an interesting concept about how we save memorabilia, in particular imagery, there is often something slightly sacred about the image itself, even the ones we don't like. The necessity to hold on to these images seems to go beyond the facts of them. In the case of these images in brings into question what it is we want to see and what we don't, are we better remembering our rosy view of the past or having a 'warts and all' view of our family history. As images it also asks us to look beyond what is there and try and understand the sub text of what we are seeing, the two notions, our personal history and what we want to preserve, and the nature of imagery and looking beyond the actuality of the image make the photographs more powerful.
