ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Verēri, 2012 - ongoing, film photography, sizes noted under images. Verēri, a latin word with an english translation to fear. The images of stillness create a sensual immersion in the visual field. The Verēri series looks into the ways fear comes to be understood. Residing in a relationship with the subjective senses and the environment, within quiet moments of nature, where can reasons for fear appear? Evoking psychological spaces to look at the art of the psyche, the nuance between fear and reverence emerges through time spent looking. Where in these images can be found the motivation to dominate nature? Within the function of the apparatus of photography and image viewing, the memory aspect of psyche forms in the behind area of physiology. This nature of subjectivity relies on a contingency between the openness of the viewer to receive, and their personal memory. The image before the viewer does not form a direct latent image in a 1:1 relation, but rather mingles with the already present qualities within the viewer. Affect is looked at, as a recollection of the ways Fear can inspire motivations as broadly as Control or Wonder. Looking upon the landscape images, nature as subject and objective invites contemplation on the manner of viewing in the interest of cultivating a loving gaze. Objective reality being that which exists no matter what is thought or believed about it, has been discussed as a construct, triggering latent memories, and leading to a rise in noise. Quietness and subtlety are boring in a culture such as that; and yet, in the quietness and within the subtle are the place to reflect on our relation with nature. To dive into as broad and interdependent area as nature, we must prepare to consider the gamut of brutality and grandeur, reverence and abjection, abdication and agency. Cultivating reverence and the loving gaze for nature reflects our relations with Memory, that which resides within each body. The images are made to inscribe impressions within the viewer, in the way optics and perception weave themselves not into a new memory, but a remembering of the foundational motive of human nature, with or without ideas, remains one and of nature itself.

Mari Amman
Norway
Mari Amman (b. 1984, Dixon, Illinois, USA) is an artist working with allegory through interests in the secular and sacred. Poetic beauty and insights in relationships between the subconscious, technology, and built environments synthesize in a research based praxis. An EIT Culture & Creativity Expert Evaluator, Amman works with biology, technological and geological scientists, music, architecture, and culture professionals. Geological Empathy and Sublime Rheology are concepts underscoring critical considerations in the ethical and moral applications of the imaginary to influence the real. The relations between idealism and environments results in reflective works with images, installations, poetry, performance, painting, sculpture, video, textiles and design. Her interest in socially and empirically determined forms of intelligence grew from being raised near the Agonic line. Being surrounded by forest, prairie preserves, a nuclear power plant, and industrial agriculture informed pursuits in music and dance, research in temporality, beauty, sound, philosophy, psychology and memory, somatics and parietal perception. Ancestry with political activist Ellen Ammann and landscape artist Harriet Sundström motivated her auto-ethnographic research after moving from USA to Norway, while her critical apprehensions in geopolitics and background in design and marketing build upon her social psychology studies and research. She is a foundational artist to Art Farm Iowa (US, 2023) and Arte Expuesto (MX, 2023). Afjordance screened during AWMAS (UCSB, 2020); Omniscient, monolithic image and text, was awarded 1st by the jury in the Imaging New Eurasia exhibition, in Gwangju (SK, 2015). She was poet and artist-in-residence in Paris (FR, 2023), Bonny Doon (US, 2022), Kjerringøy Land Art (NO, 2020) guiding forest bathing and presenting Sublime Timescapes. She developed trauma informed psychological research and practical methods at Angelot-Trélex (CH, 2019), PraksisOslo, Praxisdansfestivalen, and Butoh residency with Mushimaru Fujieda at KHiO (NO, 2017, 2018). She holds a Master of Fine Art (honors) with Frankfurt School Theory/Conceptual Studio Practice from Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles (2015) and Bachelor of Fine Art (Dean's List) in Advertising/Interior Design from Illinois Institute of Art (2006), photography and photo history at College of Lake County in Grayslake, Illinois, and social psychology at Ehime University in Matsuyama, Japan (2012).
