But this is not voyeurism, in the traditional sense ? ?It is more like a sudden glimpse ? something unexpected. These figures do not offer contact. Their faces are blank, vanishing.? This blankness allows us to project on to the image, their very anonymity an invitation to the viewer to bring something of their own. Furthermore, the larger-than-life scale draws us in, enveloping us. Being in the room surrounded by these figures is a powerfully immersive, contemplative experience. 00Exhibition: Reflex Modern Art Gallery, Amsterdam, Netherlands (25.02-26.04.2017) |
