Vanishing Point
In 2009 I was an artist in residence at the Climate Theater in San Francisco. I continued to focus on a work in progress as well as an organized thesis which I feel is still in progress.
As a part of the residency, I work on the thesis. I also work on the visual projections and took photocopied images from the digital files, printed these versions and pasted them to the wall surface.
This is a continuation with exploring issues around technology and culture, specifically with forms of nature as archived events, buried within the ditigal frame. In my immersive video environments, my work explores archived images and events, phantom representations of fluid forms. This is evident in works: “Flowers & Leaves #1 & #2- 2001-2007, and video installations.
The imagery in the works appears as a ghostlike apparition of past events and living forms encased within the absolute state of the technological apparatus. Throughout digital representations are archived images/events and phantom representations of fluid forms encased within the digital frame which vanish at points and spaces reappearing in fragmented and entropied forms.
“Dispense with the notion of time as a linear form in filmic narration, the film plane as a horizontal visual point of action/activity. Consider the mechanized reproduction of copied imagery, and you will notice vanishing points. “
