Overlooked is a project where I, as a photographer, in collaboration with two ethnologists, have tried to pay attention to what is habitually overlooked, that which surrounds us daily: a hole in the street, a lit up and wintery football field in the distance, the back of some mailboxes along a country road, and so on. It was frustrating at first, to focus on what is usually considered unappealing or at least too trivial to be at the centre. Slowly, the gaze shifted and seemingly uninteresting parts of the everyday landscape became magnets for the eye and gained new contexts.
