Holiday Maker by Jay Rechsteiner, Jura, Switzerland, print and collage, photography

 

holiday maker is part of structure which explores the ever changing structure-construction of things. These things are the constructions we live in such as for example social & cultural constructions, modes of behaviour, traditions, repetitive patterns, schools of philosophy and physical constructions such as architectural creations, animals, mountains, lakes. The constructions are in constant interaction and a slight change can trigger a chain of alterations (result of change, causal effects, chaos, interference etc.). There seems to be an underlying (?variable or constant?) structure that hold together those constructions.

I am interested in the following questions:

  1. What happens if there is a change in structure? What impact and how much of an impact does it have on the constructions and are all the constructions affected by it? How much does a change in structure alter the constructions?

  2. What happens to the structure if there is an initial change in the constructions (eg. change of form or content, removing elements/parameters) and can a change in the constructions actually have an impact on the structure?

Structure consists of a series of interrelated pieces of numbered works.
