Fake

by Zsófia Szemző

I heard a story of this man: "There was a man who threw away his passport, and when the authorities asked about his identity he said: I am in love." This work is questioning what is the identification of a person? In some data libraries and files, people are only numbers, or codes. If you don't have a passport or ID or bank account it is impossible to be part of society? This series is a group of faked passports, that speak about personal and national identity. Is it possible to cross-passport people? Portraits, faces, identities to be looked at. The national emblems are combined, and mixed up on the front covers of these passports, on the inside, on the double pages have portraits and faked visas.
