ANNETTE KELM
born 1975 in Stuttgart lives and works in Berlin
In her photographs Annette Kelm shifts constantly between direct pose and sculptural construction of form. Capturing on film the strangeness of a specific place, situation or moment, she presents her subjects with a minimum of contextual information, thereby filling the viewer with doubt as to where the images actually come from. The task she sets herself is thus less the recording of an image than the choreographing of a sculptural event and the revelation of its inherent ambiguity.
