Latest book ‘Everything Must Go!’
Available by pre-order now.
Luts’s photos lay bare the grit of modern life, where aspirations meet failure and promises meet reality. Static citizens frozen in their own endeavours and identities pepper Luts’s urban landscapes like so many lamp posts, road signs and wheelie bins, lost souls of the city in a perpetual state of limbo.
‘Everything Must Go’ is a collection of photographs capturing stolen moments in time, where the confluence of people and objects weave themes of consumerism, inequality and alienation with tenderness. While Luts allows these themes to breathe, a simple reading is subtly but consistently undermined by an awkward realism, irony or unique happenstance.
Luts’s photography revels in the diversity of characters upon the world's stage, in a place where accidents are beautiful and contradictions celebrated.
