In these photographs by Joschi Herczeg and Daniele Kaehr, the artistic team captures a single, exciting moment in a mundane, domestic surrounding. For this series Explosion, the team synchronized a camera with a custom-built detonator to snap a photo at the exact moment of explosion. The results are these mysterious blobs of light within domestic settings–a cloud hovering over an everyday lamp, a ghostly shape emerging from underneath a doorframe.
By freezing a split second of time in an unpredictable, explosive environment, Herczeg and Kaehr capture a moment of peace from an otherwise chaotic experience. Their bio describes, “Their fascination lay in making order out of chaos and freezing an ephemeral creation; each image is like a chance sculpture–the artists themselves were uncertain of the shape, colour and size they would form.”
