In 2015, Andrzej Steinbach published the photo book Figure I, Figure II, which included portraits of two women. In his book he extends this circle, using photographs to tackle the question: why should we distrust binary system of organisation and turn to triadic configurations? Steinbach begins his photographic exploration with the classical format of the group or family portrait. All the models gaze out at the viewer, but we only ever see a single person centre-frame; the others have been cropped. The models switch positions, and clothing, in the series of images: this creates deliberate confusion and the three-person constellation keeps going out of order.
