The Dictionary Document (2008)

 

Tento projekt vznikol úplne jednoducho. Zaujímalo ma, čo sa stane, keď k fotografii človeka pridám suchú slovníkovú definíciu.
Vznikne zvláštny kontrast – medzi tým, ako človek pôsobí, čo vyžaruje, a tým, ako ho definuje úplne neutrálny text.

Použil som krátke vety z anglického výkladového slovníka. Napríklad: „Nevesta je žena, ktorá sa práve vydáva alebo sa nedávno vydala.”
Keď to čítate samostatne, je to jasné. Ale keď tú vetu dáte vedľa konkrétnej ženy, zrazu to začne znieť inak.
Niektoré definície sú vtipné, niektoré pôsobia chladne, iné sú až nepríjemne zjednodušujúce.

Pre mňa je tento cyklus o tom, ako slová ovplyvňujú náš pohľad. Ako si vytvárame predstavy o ľuďoch ešte skôr, než ich naozaj spoznáme.
A možno aj o tom, že žiadna definícia človeka vlastne nestačí.

In my cycle I use short definitions as brought by the English explanatory dictionary. These text definitions gives the pictures entirely new meanings and generalisations, which would remain undiscovered in traditional presentation form.
