Sandy Skoglund — The Lost and Found
Sandy Skoglund

The Lost and Found

In Sandy Skoglund's *The Lost and Found*, a surreal and meticulously constructed scene unfolds through the rich, saturated tones characteristic of dye destruction photography. Identical sculptural objects appear to multiply and overtake a carefully staged environment, blurring the boundary between the ordinary and the uncanny. Skoglund's signature blend of obsessive repetition and vivid color transforms the everyday into a dreamlike tableau that challenges perception and memory.

Medium
Dye destruction print.
