The Singled Person: An Interview with Peer Kugler

leica:

A: “The Singled Person” is a projection showing the work of eight photographers. There is one slide projector for each photographer. The projection is more like an installation, rather than an exhibition. At any point you can always see three or four screens at once. Because the projectors are not synchronized, it’s never the same. For example, sometimes the works of three photographers synchronize and tell you a story, but then they run apart again and each one is telling its own story again. This happens because each series has a different amount of slides in the tray. One has 25 slides, another 28 and another 32. Also, the projectors’ timers all have a slightly different setting. This makes the projection very organic.
