Delving into visual strata

In her countless series, Lilly Lulay uses found photographic material that often stems from a private sphere.

And this material comprises photographs that are generally considered insignificant and irrelevant for a broader context.
Far removed from a private reality, these snapshots are synonymous with the stereotypes and peculiarities of a past photographic epoch.
In her works, Lulay not only explores the question of what is being reproduced: she frequently also enquires into the mechanisms that have resulted in specific camera shots.
