1940s-1960s
Comprising nineteen gelatin silver prints, one of which is mounted to a police record, this anonymous collection offers a haunting visual document spanning roughly two decades of the mid-twentieth century. The works capture an unidentified perspective on an era marked by profound social and political transformation, their unknown printing dates adding an additional layer of mystery to their origins. Stripped of authorship and precise context, the photographs invite viewers to confront questions of identity, surveillance, and the fragmented nature of historical memory.
