Blue Nude Photograph - Limited Edition of 31

Aleks Faust is an emerging London-based artist working mainly with photography. For his series, he works predominantly with found objects in a style formally started by Marcelle Duchamp in the early twentieth century. Although Aleks never interacts with the subjects but takes them as they were left, his works look crystal clear and sterile, if you like. A pedantic and strict approach makes these objects more of a photographed memory than a picture of rubbish. In his work, Aleks looks for a poetic narrative and a cohesive story in what people usually see but do not really look at. It is temporal and beautiful and shows the movement of objects that we often forget are moving with the planet, rather than sitting stationary as we imagine them. Composition and colour balance empower the narrative of untold stories hidden behind abandoned things. Each work evokes the viewer's conscious or subconscious associations and triggers memories related to certain objects. Meanwhile, the series as a narrative tells its own story, guiding viewers between their interpretations and creating implications. Interpretation, however, is always left to the viewer, raising emotional memories, either conscious or subconscious. Aleks calls to read between the lines, inviting viewers to reflect and observe personal associations.
