Cross-sections of bullets
Having travelled to switzerland in october 2012, photographer sabine pearlman visited a WWII bunker in switzerland. allured by the amount of different types of ammunition that existed and used during battle, she decided to document them in a way that made them seem less threatining. 'ammo' is a series 900 specimens, in which the LA-based artist has captured the cross-sections of the various bullets and missiles, unveiling the compositional make-up of each. in doing so, she has revealed their secret and unassuming complexity of elements, but also their handsome forms--a representation of the evil and the beautiful, a reflection of the human condition.
