Bullets Sliced in Half — Sabine Pearlman

Posted by Unknown Kamis, 11 Juli 2013 0 komentar
Sabine Pearlman's intriguing photo series "Ammo" features images of a variety of ammunitions that have been neatly cut in half to reveal the surprisingly varied and intricate contents inside. Pearlman shot a total of 900 cross-sections of ammo, in a World War II bunker in Switzerland last October, documenting the meticulous and dangerous beauty that lies beneath the bullets' casings.
"I was originally intrigued by the ambiguous nature of the subject matter," she says. "The cross-sections reveal a hidden complexity and beauty of form, which stands in vast contrast to the destructive purpose of the object. It is a representation of the evil and the beautiful, a reflection of the human condition."
The ammo was cut in half by a munitions specialist who devised a technique to defuse the rounds before cutting them in half.
“It is a dangerous process, especially if you don’t know what you’re doing!,” warns Pearlman.

The images are quite fascinating. It’s pity, the photographer failed to provide captions that could have explained what each bullet type is. Apparently, a knowledgeable Redditor[http://imgur.com/a/zNzs7] was able to recognize some of these bullets. The captions that you find underneath these images are based on his identification. Please be aware, they might not be correct (but I believe they are).

 7.62x51mm Plastic short-range training tracer
    This one is curious - it looks like a 7.62x51mm but the interior looks like a 'sabotage' cartridge as it appears to be loaded with a blasting cap and a small amount of explosive. Upon further consideration, I believe it may be a 7.92mm Mauser rather than a 7.62mm NATO based on the case dimensions and bullet construction.
    6.5x55mm wood bullet blank (guessing at the cartridge on that one, it looks right!)

.450 Adams - the case appears too short and the bullet is too short, the cavity too shallow and it doesn't have enough grease grooves to be a .455 MkII.

 9x19mm - looks much like a British 9mm MkIIz
    9x19mm - solid brass hollow point - unsure of maker
    9x19mm - either a tracer or possibly an explosive projectile. Not sure what that filler is.
