tapings - Limited Edition 1 of 3 Photograph

Visual artist for photography, video art, objects and performance. In the hands of Bettina Gorn, photography is freed from the constraints of being a mere depiction of reality, becoming a medium of artistic reflection on time, mortality and memory. Gorn exhibits photographic images that focus on the human body, freeze-framing it in all its vulnerability and motion. The outer envelope of the material seems to have dissolved, making space for the energy of the spiritual. Blurriness here becomes a mode of capturing the body in the midst of action and movement. The artist is interested in visualizing the authentic, processual and experimental. The engagement with the question of identity, of the within and without, is given a new impetus.
