Josphine Meckseper’s photographs subtly infuse lifestyle ideals with an incitement to revolutionary violence. Using the format of fashion magazines, Meckseper examines how cultural information and its inherent values are packaged and merchandised: beauty, capitalism, and glamour are laid bare and magnified as vacuous imagery transparently revealing their social, political, and economic realities.

“The subject of my work is human suffering that is being dispersed on the internet. Websites full of victims of violence and racism are my source of inspiration. The victims in my work are a selection of a huge amount of pictures; therefore they symbolize all victims of murder, accidents and war. I want to show this suffering, in a dignified matter, to the general public by means of a medium that most people can understand, and more important, accept.”_Justin Wijers
