| Summary: | Any photographic representation of distant lifeworlds also entails a visual formulation of what the Other might be. Each photograph taken creates countless photographic images of the Self and of the Other, rigidifying the boundaries separating oneself from the Others and validating one's own prejudices. Within this field of tension created by the identification of the Other and of the Self through photography, Vera Brandner's photographic work is to be seen both as a reflexive exploration0and as a visual response. In her portraits of people living in countries such as Angola, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Israel and Palestine she pursues an image strategy built on dialogue and communication. |
