In his work Abe Rechterschot points out interesting connections between objects, photographs and situations. He changes the hierarchic position of objects, alters them, and re-considers their (artistic) value. He investigates a way to document, present and re-document in a exhibition. He disorganizes expectations and attaches new meanings to the photographed object by changing scales, placing objects in surprising contexts and exploring the material of a photo-print. Photography and film are being used to decrypt and develop a new visual language. By small alterations Abe Rechterschot questions the construction of an image, the illusion of space in a flat image, and the materiality of a photograph and the photographed subject.
