Unarchive the Archived: Nameless Faces is an art project that departs from several passport photo/identity photo archives produced by Nyoo Studio, one of the old photo studios in Kalisat, East Java. Nyoo Studio keeps almost all of the photos he has taken over the decades (since the 1930s). On a certain scale, Nyoo Studio is like a small museum about the faces of the Kalisat people. We access these identity photos without supporting information/data such as name, address, age, gender, and so on. Those flat and expressionless faces seem to have no relation to reality, but in fact they are gestures created by the agenda of modern state administration. The production of identity photographs, at a certain level, is an ideological practice related to the relationship between citizens and the state which is institutionalized through administrative activities.
