A collection of current work by Massachusetts-based photographer Pelle Cass. Cass’s composite pictures reshuffle time and play with believability by each excessive and refined compilations. His observe includes taking hundreds of images on a tripod for an hour or two. Nothing is modified except for sure issues being chosen or omitted. On this method, whereas embracing “a sense of Dionysian chaos,” the photographs are “truthful” in their very own method. Possibly much more so than a standard {photograph} in that they include extra info of what occurred in that point/place. The marginally extra mundane pictures Cass creates of locations round Boston mirror this funding in realism—capturing individuals doing odd issues or simply going about their day:
“I place my digital camera beside me on a public bench or desk–in plain sight however largely unnoticed–and take hundreds of pictures and compile them right into a form of nonetheless time-lapse, an hour condensed right into a single panoramic picture. The method is a method for me to make jokes, quips, and feedback within the strategy of rearranging time and area. I get excited when a mysterious alchemy arises, neither wholly reality nor wholly fiction–a brand new subjectivity that sees the world as perfect, tragic, and comedian unexpectedly.”
