Ria Verhaeghe has been collecting photos from newspapers and magazines for over 30 years. She classifies and catalogues them according to her own principles, creating a personal image database – called the 'Provisoria' – which contains approximately 35,000 photos. Under the header 'Verticals', Verhaeghe is exhibiting a series of panels, which are based on photos of dead people, in the collection of late-medieval art. These images take on a new meaning because she has changed the originally horizontal orientation of these images, to a portrait or vertical orientation.
