In Extremis – bodies with no regret

Italian photographer Sandro Giordano visually manipulates everyday occurrences to create twisted and often hilarious situations of people who look like they’ve just taken a terrible fall, spilling all their stuff around them in some sort of “yard sale”. Their bodies, in awkward positions and photographed from unflattering angles, show a falling-down world.

Each shot ‘tells’ about worn out characters who, as if a sudden black-out of mind and body took over, let themselves crash with no attempt to save themselves, unable, because of the fatigue of the everyday ‘representation’ of living, oppressed by ‘appearance’ instead of simply ‘existing.’” Sandro Giordano
