The images in this post come from Swiss/French artist Corinne Vionnet. Vionnet conducted an extensive online search for pictures taken by tourists of famous landmarks and monuments. Then, she carefully layered 200-300 different photos on top of each other to get the haunting results you’re about to see more of below.
Vionnet created these images to make the viewer ponder the meaning of our memories and the passage of time. As she said about her work: “Why do we always take the same picture, if not to interact with what already exists? The photograph proves our presence. And to be true, the picture will be perfectly consistent with the pictures in our collective memory.”
You can see some of the images in her series below and see the rest here.
