In her new series of works Mia Sanchez engages with the socio-political dimension of public space, social structures, and spaces of memory: collected pieces of clothing are assembled in a photographic sample collection that encourages visitors to think about the nature of clothing as carriers of identity and a means of social emplacement. The idealized reconstruction of standardized objects as models in public space allows Mia Sanchez to reflect on the function and shaping of our surroundings as well as the way we occupy them, communicate with, and become playful in them. The stage-like presentation of the models, the different ways the photographic collages can be combined by the viewer, and the absence of human bodies create a space where potential stories and ways of acting become possible.
