For this small book brimming with images, Emma Souharce has processed each of the 813 images in Hans-Peter Feldmann’s highly popular ‘Voyeur fifth edition’ using Google’s image search function. In the original work by Feldmann, the German visual artist sifts through the plethora of images available to our consumer-driven culture and re-presents this numbing media overload to render its toxic assault visible through intriguing juxtapositions. Souharce’s collecting and re-ordering results in a half-generated, half-edited parallel version that makes playful and subtle alterations to the source material.
