What do we examine with our work?
Recently, I have read a number of artist’s statements and academic search announcements that talk about using art to examine art, or “lens-based media’s … relationship to representation” and “the nature of the image”. Rather than use the medium to examine itself, I prefer to use photography to examine the world around us.
