With his photo book In Uniform, Jan Kraus offers a fresh perspective, challenges stereotypes, and prompts us to reevaluate our relationship with the state and its representatives. A uniform symbolizes the separation between the individual and their function, the citizen and the state. It also obscures the personality of the wearer. In his book Uniform, Jan Kraus portrays individuals employed in the executive and judicial branches. Their uniforms change identities, set boundaries, and assign roles simultaneously. Observing these individuals in their private lives offers a fresh perspective, challenges stereotypes, and prompts us to reevaluate our relationship with the state and its representatives. Text in English and German.
