In migrating, individualized societies we can observe a growing longing for being part of social groups, families, tribes. For „Faceless Portraits“ i made colour-patterns – refering to family or tribal colours – by extracting 4 colours from digital potraits of friends and printed them as millimeter patterns on paper and transparent foil. I chose orchidblossoms representing the singular individual, fixed them between the opaque and the transparent layers and behind a broken glass. My aim was to create an image of the fragility of the individual in individualized societies.
