Barbara Visser

The works of Barbara Visser (born 1966 in Haarlem, lives and works in Amsterdam) are occupied with the uncertain relationship between registration and dramatization, between notions of original and copy, the natural versus the staged, and the tension between what we call the documentary and the fictitious. Using a wide variety of media and formats, her work sheds a new light on our understanding of civilized man, and the objects he surrounds himself with.
