LORE HORRÉ

an ongoing research on the endless possibilities of the photographic image






Mark






a reality in between focusses on the unseen layers of reality captured within the photonegative— a translucent window of our captured reality. An intermediary phase where light and shadow dance
in a delicate balance.

But what if the true image resides within this inversion itself This photographic series redefines the
role of images, proposing  an alternate space where authenticity and uncertainty coexist, inviting us
to question what we perceive. Where the familiar  becomes the unfamiliar, and dares us to perceive what’s beyond the surface.

‘A Reality in Between’ is more than a collection of images It’s an unravelling of the original image,
an embrace of the enigmatic. It challenges preconceptions, inviting us to question the photographic medium itself.
The photobook contains all the images used in the photographic series ‘A Reality in Between’ both in their positive and inverted ‘negative’ state of the image.

The process of this photographic work begins with the photographic negative, treated in the usual manner. A digital scan is made to create the positive image, considered as the original photographic image. Afterwards, a new print is made from these positive images on transparent film, as if they were becoming the new negatives. These new negatives are then scanned again using the same process to generate the positive image. The resulting positive image becomes the negative print of reality, as seen in the original photographic negative. The negative transparent film carries the positive image that we initially perceive as the original, but already is a copy of the original negative. In this installation, the same vicious circle between positive and negative is repeated through various materials, textures, and ink, creating a continuous interplay between positive and negative images. As viewers, we find ourselves amid this duality.
