In Point Blank by Edit Kaldor Nada’s photo project has resulted not just in an enormous collection of photos, it also has made Nada increasingly curious about human behaviour. There is practically no limit for what people will do when they imagine they are alone. In Point Blank Nada for the first time presents her photo collection for an audience.
