Constructed Landscapes
Dafna Talmor’s Constructed Landscapes are the end result of many years of frustration caused by her own photographs. The images are taken in different countries, among which are Israel, Venezuela, the UK and the United States, but their initial purpose was nothing more than personal keepsakes. As Talmor accumulated a large archive, she became increasingly conscious that the photographs don’t show much about the places that they depict and they are just that — pictures of places she once visited. She decided to use them as her source material instead of photographs in their own right in order to create something new and this is how her ongoing series was born.
Butterflies and Caterpillars
The body of work takes a closely intimate look at the contemporary drag scene in the United States. It’s a photographic examination that looks at the notions of identity and how we construct the self in a space different from society’s pre-established gender-specific roles and expectations.
Holidays — The Wait

St Paul's Cathedral — The Central Spot Of All The World

design to make humans feel small, minute and God, or whoever the deity is,
appear grand, larger
Beyond the sea
Great Britain, being an island, is surrounded by water. The outlier of
Europe, the Brits have always had a thing for their coastal towns.
Bournemouth, Brighton, the Kent coastline, are the ones that come to mind
first. The sea is hugely important for many industries — tourism, fishing,
transport. Often mocked
Children of the war from evacuated maternity hospitals
First children of war are born. Maternity hospitals are evacuated to the basements in Kyiv and suburbs because
of Russian Attacks with bombs. Neonatologists, reanimations, baby care sp
Metropole
Once the Metropole or mother city at the heart of a vast global empire, London is now the dominion to a new world power. Subject to the flows of global finance and whims of markets, the city has become little more than an investment opportunity for multinational developers and overseas investors. Metropole records the brutally disorientating effects of this by documenting these legions of new corporate and residential blocks as they are constructed and occupied.
NachtClubsBerlin
This project documents today’s techno culture in Berlin, and shows how it has been transformed into a mainstream culture that attracts millions of tourists to the city each year.

the gap between the conceptual, personal and political. She often works as
a multimedia artist using images as well as text, collage, video and
installation. In her own words, Mingueza “explores and activates the
archives to address social and gender
