Museum Pictures is an ongoing series of photographs taken in “The Museum.” Museums are spaces where objects as nouns are represented by respective archetype; they’re defined as a building in which objects of historical, scientific, artistic or cultural interest are stored and exhibited. They’re representative, but not tangibly real.

Photographs act as simulacrum in the same way, storing a representation of a moment in time as to what the image is. There’s a self referential paradox in photographing these objects on display, hence why so many photographers make work like this.

Often, work made in an institution alludes to critique; this is rather an investigation on ways of representation and display. I’m interested in looking at ways we understand looking.
