The photo series Fading into the Foreground consists chiefly of portraits or snapshots of civilians globally wearing camouflage design or other military-style fashion on the street, while going about their daily business.

For years it has been in vogue to wear the soldiers uniform as clothing, but the trend was even more marked in the years 2006-2008; for this artwork I have taken more than 1,400 photographs in Cologne (D), Budapest (HU), London (GB) Jerusalem (IL), Berlin (D), Amsterdam (NL), Lublin, Warsaw (PL), Bochum (D), New York, Boston (USA), Munich, Paderborn, Kassel (during Documenta 12), Glasgow (GB), Faro (P), Braunschweig (D), San Francisco (USA), Vienna (AT), Zurich (CH), Vancouver (CAN), New Orleans (USA) and Sofia (BG).

’It is evident that a culture born 
out of and built around resistance to hegemonic domination would inevitably develop into a culture 
of camouflage. In repressing resistance, power only makes it stronger by forcing it to create more 
subtle and sophisticated strategies for survival.‘ Aarnoud Rommens, "C stands for Censorship", in AS Mediatijdschrift no 176 Winter 2005-06
