“Being preoccupied with objectness and photography, I create images of various objects, of dry, meaningless artefacts of everyday world. At the same time I seek the same artefacts self-referentially in the world of photography. This, to me, is an exercise in patience in a meaningless field, which nonetheless enables intense creativity, engagement and enthusiasm. Although there are concrete social issues that art should be providing answers to, I tend to shut myself in the politics of the medium, in the politics of my own finger on the shutter button, the gaze in the viewfinder, in the strategy of developing and enlarging photographs, as well as the politics of selecting and exhibiting. I apologize for not possessing any additional knowledge of the world, I only mean to create it through my activity. If there is an aim to my exhibition, this is it.” – Peter Rauch
