Casus Nietzsche series. Beyond good and evil. Photograph - Limited Edition of 1

Casus Nietzsche series. Beyond good and evil. The work shows the situation already existing, but still bearing the traces of its past, when undifferentiated borders was the main motive to exist. Visual decision lies in opposition of the moments “now” and “past” that visually identified as “here” and “behind”. In the protracted movement from top to bottom, our heroine jumps easily from paradise of ignorance, of places without distinctions, that was the state before the fall, when the consequence does not follow from the cause and logic does not succeeded due to the uselessness of both. We see our model is already here, in the midst of the real world of sun and grass, but what’s left there? What’s on the other side, some open spaces, some heavenly place where there is no longer entrance, what winds rustle there and what trees bear their fruit? The model is already with us in the world of differentiation, she passed almost invisible line between spaces, only model’s hands left behind, they still enjoy some air of irresponsibility, and not willing to lose the feel of innocence of creation. The elusiveness of light art, creativity and action still beyond good and evil, where the beauty will save the world, in the last moments before landing “here”. “24. O sancta simplicitas! In what strange simplification and falsification man lives! One can never cease wondering when once one has got eyes for beholding this marvel! How we have made everything around us clear and free and easy and simple! how we have been able to give our senses a passport to everything superficial, our thoughts a godlike desire for wanton pranks and wrong inferences!—how from the beginning, we have contrived to retain our ignorance in order to enjoy an almost inconceivable freedom, thoughtlessness, imprudence, heartiness, and gaiety—in order to enjoy life! And only on this solidified, granitelike foundation of ignorance could knowledge rear itself hitherto, the will to knowledge on the foundation of a far more powerful will, the will to ignorance, to the uncertain, to the untrue! Not as its opposite, but—as its refinement! It is to be hoped, indeed, that LANGUAGE, here as elsewhere, will not get over its awkwardness, and that it will continue to talk of opposites where there are only degrees and many refinements of gradation; it is equally to be hoped that the incarnated Tartuffery of morals, which now belongs to our unconquerable ‘flesh and blood,’ will turn the words round in the mouths of us discerning ones. Here and there we understand it, and laugh at the way in which precisely the best knowledge seeks most to retain us in this SIMPLIFIED, thoroughly artificial, suitably imagined, and suitably falsified world: at the way in which, whether it will or not, it loves error, because, as living itself, it loves life!” (Beyond Good and Evil by Friedrich Nietzsche.
