Using multiple cameras, Barbara Probst examines a single moment in time from six different vantage points, in both color and black-and-white. Individually, the pictures might suggest the candid documentation of a specific event. Collectively, the images reveal the subjectivity of photographic interpretation: photographic records vary widely according to the maker, her position, and her materials.
