'Proof of Existence' by the photographer duo Fotometro - Rona Bar & Ofek Avshalom - is a vivid exploration of identity, performance and the quiet surrealism of everyday life. Through a cast of imagined characters placed in familiar settings, the series blurs the boundary between the real and the constructed. Each photograph offers a glimpse into alternate selves - eccentric, tender and defiantly visible - inviting us to consider the ways we perform, conceal or celebrate who we are.

 

At once playful and poignant, the work challenges ideas of normality and belonging. It honours strangeness not as spectacle, but as truth, reminding us that the bizarre is already among us, often hiding in plain sight. Proof of Existence stands as a quiet rebellion against invisibility and a bold affirmation of the human need to be seen.
