@dipshooop has given
@phototriennale an identity without a single photograph.
For the festival’s 9th edition, the Cologne-based studio turned to the things that usually pass unnoticed inside a photograph: depth of field, lens flares and burned film. It made them the subject. Two shapes are used in the system: a circle drawn from the way light behaves as it passes through a lens, and a rounded rectangle taken from the perforations that pull analogue film through a camera. Depth of field gets no shape of its own and is represented by a blur, softening the geometry.
Colour works in RGB at full and half strength and blends six values into 12, so the overlaps echo the positive/negative inversion of photographic image-making.
