One of the struggles in the photographic world today is the overflowing of images all over the world and whether we as photographers carry on creating new images or use the ones we have. In this task, we put some images into archives creatively. One photographer that does is Batia Suter. In her photo book, Parallel Encyclopaedia #2, she situates old images into a context to create meaning (there is an idea that images have no meaning until they are grouped together with other images, Suter shows this in her work as she pairs "unphotographable" images together). In these tasks, we also concentrated on the issues of selecting, sequence and contextual meaning.
