Michael Dahm’s Photographs Are An Affront To Oppression

Michael Dahm‘s photographs explore public space, places that are outside the control of the capitalist system, his pictures commenting on oppression in contemporary society through politics, family structure and violence.
His work is neither a picture of reality nor a surreal vision rather it straddles the line between reality and fiction, the past and present melt away to create a situation in which we are forced to impress our own narrative on the situation, our perception of the image becoming the truth. This concept of creating a photograph – which already implies a physical truth – that is open to interpretation questions the veracity of the medium itself. What are we looking at? Is it real? Is it a document? Or is our bias defining the truth of what we look at.
This simple idea protests against objective truths and cultural narratives and in doing so begs us to reconsider everything we see in the media. It’s a situationist attack on the spectacle of the photographic image, each picture an attack on our compliance, on our passive acceptance of what we see.
This desire to create an aesthetic that plays with convention yet subverts it, in order to reawaken our consciousness to the reality of manipulation, is the central theme that runs through these cityscapes. Each a poetic and metaphorical picture that wants us to become active, a willing participant in its self enclosed world that leave traces and balances on the edge of recognition and alienation. Here’s what Dahm has to say about his work:
By demonstrating the omnipresent lingering of a ‘corporate world’, I investigate the dynamics of landscape, including the manipulation of its effects and the limits of spectacle based on our assumptions of what landscape means to us. Rather than presenting a factual reality, an illusion is fabricated to conjure the realms of our imagination. Using written and drawn symbols, a world where light-heartedness rules and where rules are undermined is created. By exploring the concept of landscape in a nostalgic way, I touch various overlapping themes and strategies. Several reoccurring subject matter can be recognised, such as the relation with popular culture and media, working with repetition, provocation and the investigation of the process of expectation
