Documenting pre-selected groups or phenomena is a typical habit and strategy in photography. The photographer becomes a hunter of images, which he composes, compiles, and manipulates into his own story. He or she searches for own narrative within the media – models that can be used for aestheticization.
The concept of Based on True Story is about a photographer looking for clues in a scattered story with no set boundaries. Is it “performance for the camera” or found situation? Because of the absence of narration and introduction text, a chaotic set of pictures is open for reading and interpretation. It captures the route that is not articulated or marked on any map.
