Chris’ body of work “Future Research (revisited)” utilizes the tools of photographic production to address the increasingly mediated environment. Using a personal archive as source material, the work questions the nature of image production, circulation, and distribution. “Future Research (revisited)” situates itself within the saturated field of image politics while exploiting our collective understanding of images.
