Exactitudes – categorizing with the camera

May 6, 2011

Series 65. Carry Daddies - Rotterdam 2005 by Ari Versluis and Ellie Uyttenbroek

I am interested in the ways people use photography to capture the specific and link it to the more general and vice a versa… to do the work of coding and categorizing – so often aimed at in research – using the visual as the primary tool. So here is a cool project looking at styles of dress in different sub-groups, a collaboration by photographer Ari Versluis and profiler Ellie Uyttenbroek that lives somewhere in the borderlands of documentary, visual anthropology, pop-culture and art. Check it out: it’s called Exactitudes – to play on the specifics of each persons individuality and the linking attitudes that form a sub-group.
