About the art
Artist statement
Within the mechanic of modern society is an idea that to best live within our spaces we need to work together. These spaces may be large cities, suburban, country or coastal; but in each of these places we cooperate to build communities and work together to create a harmonious existence. This machine therefore is a result of many modules that are required to work autonomously and in sync with one another to create social order. Based in the ideas of modular paper folding, where the individual piece supports the next to create a whole; Trigger Systems shares this idea. It abstracts and obscures the view of our landscape on the surface, sometimes it shows it with clarity and and strength, and in other aspects it is faint and feels unclear. It is when they come together, and form a whole that the various aspects of these spaces and places become our home.
This is a folded, silver gelatin print created in the darkroom. Each work in the series is 20x20cm and a unique state print. This edition is float mounted, framed in a black finish wood frame behind glass. Frame dimensions are approximately 30x30cm.
