A Failed Attempt to Photograph Reality
165 Photographs & 165 Poems



Originally shown at Galleri Format in Malmö (SE) and Bladr in Copenhagen (DK), this online exhibition presents 165 gelatin silver prints made by Julian Slagman between 2022 and 2025. 

Each photograph is going to be paired with a short text. A spontaneous, intuitive response – a memory, an observation, a note from the day the photograph was made.

By contributing you will receive a print and its hand stamped text in a small numbered envelope. In the ordering process you will be asked to write down the number of the image, that you have selected.
