Archive, Document, Artpiece,...?

Performance documents, performance photography or photography...
All these definitions and materials together can be seen as a means to archive actions, situations and objects. the photography deceives the act of performance and is transforming the ephemeral action into something steady. Often the photographic document is becoming more importance than the live act and is replacing the performance itself.
in this series, the topic of representation of performance art is challenged. it is not clear if the setting of the pictures are staged or if it is a result of a performance.
