About This Project

Nina Kling

“I love to wander the city streets and observe people.
My series, Duologues, records fragments of these encounters. It is a play between two images creating meanings belonging to neither— a discovery process each viewer interprets differently. Reminiscent of the concept of synchronicity, an idea that describes meaningful coincidences, my pairings intentionally produce uncanny relationships. I match the images by finding shapes, gestures, and symbols that rhyme within either the major elements or in minute details that otherwise might go unnoticed. By pairing two photos that are captured at different moments in time, the story that emerges may bring them together. The final sequence feels connected, even though the encounters on the street were random.”
