Thomas Mailaender
Illustrated People is the result of a one year artist residency at the Archive of Modern Conflict’s (AMC) collection in London, 2013. Selecting 23 original negatives from the collection, Thomas Mailaender applied them onto the skin of models before projecting over them a powerful UV lamp and thus imprinting a fleeting image onto the skin’s surface. Maileander then photographed each of his models before the sun made the image disappear.
