Panel Flats

In Panel Flats, Menno Aden shows sections of the façade of a prefabricated building in Berlin, always from the same perspective and with an identical image section. As if taken by a scanner, the raster images reveal minimal differences in a seemingly uniform system. The series appears calm and structured, and at the same time reveals the individual expression behind the anonymity.
