Fotograf Magazine

SAD /ORCHARD/ is a moving, richly structured artistic and social project somewhere on the boundaries of photography, local history, agriculture and social therapy. Similar to other deprived artists or lonely curators, I went the way of involved social effort, implemented by researching photography on a folk, practical/commercial and – in part – artistic level as well. Orcharding represents a kind of thematic pretence to a more generally treated exhibition on the medium of photography as a very broad visual expression and area of 20th century culture. But it remains a means of developing authentic neighbourly relations and an attempt to snap off the gingerbread men from the enticing grant cottage.
