TRIPLE PARADE 2015

It may seem strange to some that this book seems like a magazine that contains articles, interviews, photography and jewellery from various professions such as curators, designers, artists, directors and historians, despite the fact that they are world experts in their respective fields. However, it is indeed a pretty contented one. There is a very good reason for this, that it remains an extremely workable formula for bringing together a diverse portfolio with often greatly contrasting roles, open minded under a single comprehensive theme.

Photographer Thomas Aangeenbrug has been invited for building up a new concept approach to the content of Three in Dialogue, he has specialized in the sense of contemporary photography. Aangeenbrug constructs dimensional layers with space between three transparent glass sheets, making use of conventional studio techniques, in the form of tempting image and building conversation between objects in photographic images. An invitation is held out to us that transforms each piece of jewellery into a new reality. This quality guarantees a surprising result with a fresh approach. And then, the second photographer Kuai Che in China, already moving, has grabbed the stick from Aangeenbrug and continued photography with a similar concept, diversifying the context yet connecting all in one series. The two photographers have never met each other in person, and so this is another interesting conversation in Triple Parade which features both.
