In our photo series Icons, we have been recreating icons of photographic history as three- dimensional dioramas in our studio since 2013. The models are then photographed. This results in images that seem to resemble the originals to a hair’s breadth. <\/span><\/p>\n

The seamless illusion is immediately undermined, however, by bringing the studio setting and the traces of the working process into the picture. Scenes that have inscribed themselves deeply in the collective memory – the burning Twin Towers, Robert Capa’s falling militiaman in the Spanish Civil War, or Stuart Franklin’s shot of the \u00abTank Man\u00bb from Tiananmen Square, which won a World Press Photo Award in 1990 – rise up among tripods, soft boxes, Stanley knives, and the remains of model kits. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00abIcons\u00bb is at once a homage to photographic history, a humorous appropriation of its pillar saints, and – in the double staging of motif and studio situation – a reflection on the ways in which the medium functions. In times when alternative facts are handled in too many places, our images encourage reflection on the fragile truth of photography, the relationship between authenticity and construction, and the importance of context and perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n
