THOMAS DEMAND

THOMAS DEMAND (1964-)

In his photographs of reconstructed rooms and places Thomas Demand (born in Munich in 1964) explores a notion of reality that guides our perception of a media and technology-dominated world. For this purpose he produces life-size reconstructions then are perfectly lit and photographed with a large-size camera. What, at first sight, seems to be a hyperrealistic reproduction of reality proves, at a closer look, to be a model. Reduced to a purely superficial surface they are strangely artificial. Cool and untouched they are like another world in which reality and virtuality are emeshed. With their sterile superficiality, Demand\'s high-gloss prints serve as perfect screens for our memories - memories of daily life that mark our modern view of the world: pictures from newspapers, magazines, the internet, television, and sometimes, books. Like film stills they capture moments that refer to a greater event and evoke stories in our mind.
