This one folds back on itself and resonates from the past: a retroactive echo, the blurred memory of an idea that grows sharper and more refined over time. The eye focuses on the image the way the brain focuses on the idea. The first happens in space, the second happens in time.
If the eye is the organ between the outside world and the image that prints itself in our mind, art is the organ between our inner world and its impression offered to the public.
The screen-printed poster is like the result of a very short focal length concentrated on the foreground (the last in time); this exhibition also aims to reveal what lies hidden in the depth of field.
Through constant redefinitions, vision sharpens, the idea becomes clearer, the image steps out of the plane to take shape—or come to life. Then anatomies emerge: volumes breaking out of the frame and sculpted effigies.
From sketch to finished drawing, from film positive to poster, from image to modeling, “The Noise of the Retina” focuses on disturbances.
Opening Saturday, February 28 – Exhibition on view for 1 month.
