Exactitudes Extended EditionInspired by interest in the striking dress codes of various social groups, Rotterdam-based photographer Ari Versluis and stylist Ellie Uyttenbroek have systematically documented numerous identities.
They call their series "Exactitudes" - a contraction of "exact" and "attitude".
By registering their subjects in an identical framework they provide an almost scientific record of people's attempts to distinguish themselves from others by assuming a group identity.
The apparent contradiction between individuality and uniformity is taken to such extremes that the artistic aspect dominates the purely documentary element.
Rotterdam's heterogeneous street scene remains a major source of inspiration for them, although for this new edition they have also visited Praia, New York and Bordeaux.
