Entangled
27 October 2021
Entangled explores the surprising connections between quantum mechanics and documentary photography. This interdisciplinary project investigates how the principles of quantum entanglement can offer new perspectives for understanding the relationship between photographer, subject, and observer. Through a series of images and theoretical reflections, the work challenges the conventional perception of visual documentation as a neutral act, revealing instead its deeply relational and transformative nature. The photographs that follow are not simple recordings of reality, but nodes in a network of interactions that, like entangled quantum particles, remain interconnected across time and space.

The ‘Entangled’ project proposes that visual documentation is not passive recording but an act of relational creation.

The photographic act is a form of entanglement: each image becomes a node in a network of relationships between photographer, subject, and observer.

Physicists have shown how entanglement is not a rare phenomenon that occurs only on certain specific occasions but that it is in fact what happens on a regular basis during any kind of interaction between any physical system at a certain (microscopic) scale.
To date, entanglement has generally been limited to microscopic quantum units such as pairs or multiples of single ions, atoms, photons, etc.
Only in very recent researches, quantum entanglement has been observed and recorded directly on a macroscopic scale, a scale much larger than the subatomic particles.
Scientists are suggesting there could be a subtle and invisible layer of reality that is connecting everything in the universe both on a physical and theoretical level.

I observed patterns inside relations. How habits and behaviours relates to our identity when we are close to somebody.
