Useful photography #017
Most people who survive a dramatic ordeal, narrowly avoiding death, are familiar with the urge to thank someone. Useful Photography #017 is dedicated to such expressions of gratitude via the form of ex-votos. Frank Kouws discovered a sanctuary in Italy where the walls are covered in ex-votos; small, framed collages, each featuring snapshots of wrecked vehicles and the survivors alongside their handwritten declarations of devotion and thanks.
