second part of an insight into the work process of artists and brothers Tobias and Joseph Feltus.

Domestic Zirkus is the title of the new exhibition the Feltus brothers bring to London at the beginning of the new year. Together with their respective partners Caroline Bliemel and Elizabeth Krause, Tobias and Joseph Feltus create a "theatre of the absurd" in a collection of photographs, exploring a series of characters inspired by the circus of the late 1800s, the fear of lost virility, the loneliness of childhood, and even the depression of a de-sanctified saint.
For years the Feltus brothers have worked primarily with themselves and each other as subject. Their work is both self portraiture, and an exploration of the human condition through a series of characters they find themselves interpreting.
Shooting exclusively on film, the brothers are dedicated to a pictorial notion of classic photography, and often try to make images that may look digitally manipulated, but exclusively by means of in-camera techniques, on film.
