Aesthetics and Standards

Philipp Hindahl, 2020
Carsten Becker condenses the aspects of standardization for his DIN series, in which functional and aesthetic concerns meet. Above all, two standards meet here: Becker paints DIN objects in RAL colors and photographs them. In Becker’s photographs, a strange effect presents itself: The proportions seem to change, the medium of representation pushes into the foreground and creates an alienation. The objects and the colors are removed from the sphere of use.
