Although born in New York in 1950\, he has lived and worked in South Africa for over 30 years. Over the past three decades his distinctive style of photography has evolved using a simple square format in stark and beautiful black and white. In the earlier works in the exhibi- tion his connection to the tradition of documentary photography is clear\, but through the 1990s he developed a style he describes as “documentary fiction.” After 2000\, the people he first discov- ered and documented living on the margins of South African society increasingly became a cast of actors working with Ballen in the series “Outland” and “Shadow Chamber\,” collaborating to create disturbing psychodramas. The line between fantasy and reality in his more recent series “Boarding House” and his book Asylum of the Birds (published in the Spring of 2014 by Thames and Hudson) has become increasingly blurred and in these photographs he has employed drawings\, painting\, collage and sculptural techniques to create elaborate sets. Ballen has invented a new hybrid aesthetic in these works\, but one still firmly rooted in photography.
