註釋Othová's large-scale black & white photographs are exhibited as suites of images that create a lyrical narrative of nomadism, charting her travels between her native Prague and cities beyond. Although her photographs are almost exclusively black & white, her work does not fit into the traditional tropes of documentary or art photography with which the black & white medium is usually associated. Her images are distinctly presented and structured through carefully edited linear and grid-like sequences interspersed with the occasional stand-alone photograph. Othová carefully groups together photographs taken from a back catalogue of images, sometimes taken over a number of years. Her intriguing juxtapositions of interiors, street scenes, landscapes and still lifes transform photographic observations into unsettling visual codes. In this way, Othová adjusts the context surrounding her ostensible subjects so that their representation becomes uncertain. Influenced as much by literature, music and film as photography, Othová chooses titles which have a strangely searching, resonant, but ultimately unspecified meaning. Some of her recent works, described as 'time-collecting' projects, deconstruct the temporal aspects of photography. English and German text.
