“I find it difficult when looking at these works to avoid questions about the status of not just photography but representation more broadly in a post-postmodern world. Keenly aware of photographic history, Slovenc seems to be wondering in this series: Where does photography stand? Is documentation even possible? What is the relation between formal and thematic concerns? What purpose(s) have generic interests served up until now? How are photo-historical periods linked — in some sense how are they married to — specific generic and thematic content? Are any of the earlier preoccupations that were developed in an analogue world valid in a digital one? It seems that the sequestions haunt any photographic effort nowadays. Slovenc seems to imply that something is there but that the nature of representation has changed so dramatically that the referent is in retreat — to put it mildly.”
