In her extensive series bruch stück, Lena Baloch works on images of inner worlds that are commonly difficult to visualize and are also often hidden. She self-confidently deals with social regulations that leave no room for deviations from the norm. bruch stück is a complex photographic group of works that makes the widespread phenomenon of a depressed perception of the world tangible with the means of photography. Along her own past, Lena Baloch reflects on experiences of depression. Her imagery photographically explores the burden of memory difficulties, a suicide attempt, and perceptual shifts of depressive states. Depression detaches memories from their temporal location and leaves gaps. The design of the images is adapted to this mode of remembering - flashlike, blurred, discontinuous - at any rate fleeting. Memories of places, events and feelings combine with images of the imagination. What remains is a kaleidoscopic structure consisting of fragments of her own identity.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
