In Uniform
The series examines the relationship between citizens and the state. Uniforms change identities, they demarcate and assign. A uniform symbolizes the separation between people and office - citizens and the state. At the same time, it blocks the view of the personality of the wearer. The work “In Uniform” attempts to reveal the private person, the person behind the uniform. The images open up a dialogue examining stereotypes of state power while also raising questions about responsibility.
