studio visit with keith sanborn--olga djola

Report
about my meeting with Keith Sanborn.

At first - i showed him the project about my mother’s house.
It is a photo project, which consist of two blocks of pictures and three pieces of the text. (text 1 – pics part 1 – text 2 – pics part 2 – text 3)
I can’ t remember exactly, but his ideas was about –
1. using the text. It’s a real problem of this project – how to situate the text there. How make it collaborate with the images in the best way. To write it down under the pictures, or united all parts in one (kind of statement). It depends –
2. were and how to present the project. Can it exist as a book, as an exhibition or in a virtual space (maybe to be interactive)?
3. Also the problem, on which I’m tying to work now – is a second block of pictures, mirroring my mother’s point of view. But they was made by me. So logically to ask my mom to take a pictures of her house and trying to replace second part of images..
Then we had a productive talk about a theory of photography, discoursed the based texts (Barthes, Krauss, Virilio, Flusser ect.) and he advised me a few useful links and authors.
