| 关于此艺术家 |
It was always interesting for me to analyze photography as a medium and produce works about photography through photographs. |

In the photographic set "Contextual" I analyze the relationship between space and photography. Photographic images are something you can not touch, but photograph itself is material, tangible and has the same relation with space as all other material things. They can be hanged or framed and be placed on the chest. However, despite the fact that the photograph has the features of the material things, it usually shows something that does`t belong to the present time and space. That`s why a photograph can be perceived differently in different contexts. "Every photograph is just a fragment; its emotional weight depends on where it intervenes. Photograph changes by the context in which you see it" - Susan Sontag says.
Photograph "squeezes" a three-dimensional view into a two-dimensional plane and it is again projected into a three-dimensional space. In my work the photograph is projected into the same space and is photographed again. In this way the photograph is placed into a two-dimensional plane and the only and permanent context becomes another photograph which shows the same. In this way I am like safeguarding the sense of the "primary" photograph.

Mekas Veža/Mekas Drives
2004 photo object 20X80 cm |
|
In this work several segments of expression are invoked:
LANGUAGE (the word VEŽA/DRIVES has a slang strain)
IMAGE (the photograph of John Mekas)
OBJECT (the skateboard with John Mekas` portrait on its surface)
CULTURAL FAMILIARITY (the viewer combines the separate elements into one solid creation through his own knowledge)
The always young vanguard, the privilege of the young people - the skateboard and the perpetual anarchy get into one existence in my work. Besides image - the skateboard itsef can really drive you. All creation of Jonas Mekas is like driving on the skateboard where intuition, speed and giddiness rules.
Mekas can drive you too!
Enjoy it! |
