Marco Sanges: London “Sensations”
Haus Der Fotografie cordially invites you to enter the extraordinary world of Marco Sanges. This fantastic storyteller creates his photographic narratives as cinematic sequences. As we peer through Sanges’ silvered lens, the distortion suggests that all is meaningless, nothing has purpose. Within such surreal walls, logical arguments fall into nonsense; eloquent speech collapses into gobbledegook and the inevitable outcome will be silence. As a result, the subjects are trapped in cruelly endless mimes, menaced relentlessly by incomprehensible outside forces. Borrowing stylistically from the silent movies of the 1920s and 30s, Sanges’ players gesture helplessly from the other side of their screens. Aghast, afraid, astonished, their expressions are enormously exaggerated.

They all work in different media and in different cultural contexts, which allows us to form a wide web of aesthetic and contentual interpretations around the idea of water as paradox.
