With 'Doorways', visual artist Michiel Kluiters investigates how space (or spatiality) works in photography and how it can become an instrument for narration. A series of photographed spaces open up a conversation and hint at intimate stories. Walls look creaked, roughly textured. They seem to address the hands instead of the eyes: they beg to be touched, to be stroked, to be felt. These spaces look like unfinished buildings or abandoned ruins, still under construction or already in decline. This introduction of a temporal sense - of something that is pointing towards a future completion or to a lingering memory of something that has irrevocably passed - adds to the inherent instability of these works. Are we looking at places that depict a possible dystopian future or the remnants of a utopian past?
