Figures of Devotion
Photographs from Klinikum Chemnitz
Imaging procedures and their equipment are available to medical staff as an aid to knowledge. The sense of sight and its physical extension, photography, promise a high degree of rationality. At the invitation of Chemnitz Hospital, photographer Felix Bielmeier spent six months developing a work that visualised things not perceived by the public. Medical work and patient care were at the centre of the project - as well as a reflection on aesthetic boundaries and the ambivalent possibilities of the photographic image between information and social practice.
