‘memory lane’ by peter funch, 2007 (from the series ‘babel tales’)

danish photographer peter funch captures commonalities in the big city with his series ‘babel tales’.
in the series, funch plants his camera on  the streets of new york, snapping away as people walk by.
he strategically shots people with common traits, be it red clothing, looking upwards or talking on
their cell phone; all typical sights on the streets. but funch goes one step further by editing his photos
together creating montages where these people are all in one shot. the result is a surreal series of
works which demonstrate that despite our differences we are very much alike.
