About The Artwork

Final MA work Installation view '“amalgam”: merger, combination, and fusion. At the same time, it is used to create the reflective side of a mirror – a rather metaphorical connection to the work itself. Acting as a mirror in itself. Something to reflect in and reflect on. The presentation as a “distorted” triptych flows in a more communicative way. Leaving space between my work and the surrounding is acting as a breathing space and void at the same time. The white space is acting as a mediator between the pieces and as a space for reflection. The large piece ("amalgam I") is "flowing" over the edge to the floor, using the line between wall and floor as a "frame", being interrupted and therefore dissolved. A photo "outside the frame" Amalgam II together with amalgam III build a unit, a revelation and concealment at the same time with art historical and philosophical connotations: a "dialog" between Duchamp and Malevich, however within the notion of photography.

What do you really see? I am interested in the notion of using methodological experimentation within an image in order to abstract and play with the visible and invisible through obstruction. A combination of thinking off and thinking in itself. A combination of experience and feeling. A combination of questioning and contingency. Predominantly German and French philosophers views on “seeing” and perception are consciously and subconsciously absorbed to later emerge and to be translated into visual language. The need to deconstruct the representational character of the photograph and to expand its conventional limits respectively has been triggered by the re-occurring obstruction in mind and image and constant questioning of the media through the very process of experimentation and exploration. Ambiguity is leading to abstraction, using mixed media and perceptional puzzlement, but also engagement with the viewer and seer. [the artist] gives something for the eye to feed on, but he invites the person to whom this picture is presented to lay down his gaze there as one lays down one's weapons. (Lacan)
