Found Family

To view individual artworks click image

'Mother' by Zane Mellupe, 2007

Found Family is a series of work, where the photos are printed from negatives that among many others have been found along the alleys of Shikumen ruins. The act of finding appears random, but randomness is what this work is partly about when talking about arranged marriage, one child policy and the pressure from society to have both fulfilled.

Calling it “Found Family” is an act of enforcement where the individual appears to be helpless in front of the family, society and government.
