entry description
Beauty as a commodity, the body as a construction site of interchangeable components. Botox to go or a quick breast job. Ones' own body as a playground for fast-paced beauty trends. If it does not fulfill expectations, no matter, just go back under the knife. Always on the hunt for eternal youth and perfection.People slip into other bodies, change their appearance, decorate themselves with foreign skins and yet fail miserably on the percistency of their own selfhood.
about the photographer
Frank Bayh and Steff Rosenberger-Ochs, or simply Frank & Steff, work together as a photographers duo since 2004. In addition to their commercial work for fashion and advertising clients from all around the world, the two artists have also made a name in the photographic art scene with their staged photo spreads for which they already received numerous international prizes and awards. The perfect symbiosis of male and female perspective on their subject, as well as the approach as "one photographer in two bodies" result in images with a very own distinctive style.back to gallery
