The project In the Shadow of Photography is eminently photographical in a twofold sense: it talks about a presence which is also an absence, in the sense that it reflects on the medium of photography with very few actual photographs; and it considers its own self-reference in a natural, innate way, without forcing any awkward situations. This reflection is carried out from an essential yet (or possible necessarily) invisible position. It considers the way in which the appearance, democratisation and extension of photography has changed our social behaviour.
This set of thirty objects includes drawings, photographs taken from printed media, a book, a camera, a back-projected animation onto the edges of a frame identical to that used for the other works... Everything is explained and yet remains open, in a kind of subtle suspense, much like the title of the installation itself. We live and behave under the influential, omnipresent shadow of photography and yet increasing it doesn’t serve as much to describe us as to make us players in a life completed by the fiction created by its scenes.

Ruetz' pictures are as far removed from those of the animal specialist...
