Anonymous Objects: Inscrutable Photographs and the Unknown

by Kim Beil

Anonymous Inscrutable Photographs and the Unknown suggests that unidentifiable things in photographs point towards larger questions about the limits of knowledge. In a world that seems to give up images of itself more freely every day, there’s very little left to the unknown. Inscrutable photographs keep ambiguity alive. They make room for curiosity and wonder by resisting our facile attempts to know the world by naming it.
