2024 Three screens (a study)
Moving image installation, mixed media, variable dimensions.
De Vlakke Hamer, Rotterdam, NL
Three works which tentatively question (digital) screens and images as objects, articulating and exposing through their juxtaposition the threshold/tension between their expected representational function and their presentation as material devices, insisting on grids, edges, frames, flatness/depth, positvie/negative, image/object.
Three found screens, drawn from the artists' daily practice of observation and then variously manipulated through a studio-based, sculptural approach to images.
Made as self-standing studies between 2022 and 2023, together they give shape to a formal self-reflection on the practice of image-making itself - its objects, devices, fields of existence - as well as an urgent speculation on the pervasive yet often overlooked presence of screens and images.
