FUSION OF PHOTOS AND CLASSICAL ART   Lars Hilfling


I merge photos from i.g. social media, sports and news with visuals from classical art and explore how cultural narratives are constructed and unfolded over time.

The past may be dead, but history is alive and it is constructed in the present.

'LARS HILFLING: REFRAMING ART HISTORY FROM A QUEER PERSPECTIVE'  Lars Hilfling


"If we see ourselves from a historical perspective, we get the chance to see ourselves from a different perspective"


Article by Jeffrey Scott Stratton.

SELECTED WORK  Lars Hilfling


From the series ”Seven Acts of Mercy”.

The people in the front are merged from an oil painting by Michael Sweerts from 1649, called “Clothing the Naked”.


In my picture apparently something else is going on.

A kind of undressing. An act of emancipation.
