concealment through reflection: 'the arc de triomphe, wrapped' at another glimpse

concealment through reflection

‘concealment through reflection’ by architectural photographer faruk pinjo is a series of images that responds to the viewing of art in the public space, at another glimpse. the focus is on the viewer experiencing art in its fullest beauty, but by concealing themselves with the use of reflections. ‘concealment of oneself’s urge to experience art through reflectivism’

in this series, the photographer uses reflections in order to show the impressive wrapping of the arc de triomphe, which was a vision by christo and jeanne-claude for decades and shown for a couple of weeks in paris, france.

this series links to the exhibition ‘na drugi pogled’, which faruk pinjo showcased at ‘the days of architecture 2021’ — an architectural event in sarajevo. there, he showed 34 of his works ‘at a second glance’ in an unusual kind of manner for architectural photography.
