Every… Bernd and Hilla Becher Gable Sided House
A densely layered digital composition, this work overlaps every photograph from Bernd and Hilla Becher's iconic typological series of gable sided houses into a single, darkened image. Khan's process of superimposition reduces the individual structures into a ghostly, almost abstract form, where architectural details blur and dissolve into one another. The result is a meditation on repetition, memory, and the weight of accumulated imagery, transforming the Bechers' systematic documentary approach into something deeply atmospheric and expressive.
