Die Serie "Basic Needs" setzt sich mit Lügen auseinander. Lügen die wir uns selbst erzählen und Lügen die wir aus Bequemlichkeit glauben wollen. Ich gebe einen gehässigen Kommentar auf das Verhalten und die Einstellung von uns den wohlstandsverwöhnten Mitteleuropäern.
Nico Waldemar Dabek
Current project – Vulnerability and Abstraction (12 black-and-white photographs on Photo-Rag paper)
This photo series explores the invisible mechanisms of capitalist power structures in modern school architecture: Twelve carefully composed black-and-white images combine architectural details from three school buildings to form a fictional learning space, in which the play of light and austere geometries create a sense of surveillance and control. In this way, the series invites us to perceive architectural structures not only as functional but also as ideological spaces, and to question their hidden power dynamics
