Whether there’s any other similarities between the two, one thing is for certain: both Fred Durst and Martin Klimas have something in common: they both feel compelled to break stuff. While Durst likes people’s faces, Klimas prefers to keep physical violence out of it and instead, drops porcelain figurines in the darkness and photographs their surface impact with a high-speed shutter. The result is a paradoxical mix of calm and calamity. Rosecrans Baldwin over at The Morning News has a fantastic interview with Klimas about the creative process behind his photography, which is definitely worth checking out — as is the rest of his body of work. If you’re going to try this at home, though, you should probably ask permission before you lay into your dead grandma’s Lladro stash.

Recently I’ve seen a lot of photography capturing various things in the state of breaking, but the set with the characters is an amazing idea that was executed quite well. Great link!
