Interference Pattern
May 11, 2020Lately I have been focusing on photobook research and layout, but I must not forget that I also intend to exhibit prints as part of my final folio toward the end of the year. I was looking at the work of Vivian Cooper Smith, and whilst the subject matter or style does not particularly relate to my work, I did like the way that the large-scale prints of Interference Pattern (a joint series, created with Rebecca Najdowski) were exhibited. They are all overlapping each other, and not pinned down on the bottom two corners. This challenges the traditional way of exhibiting work in a gallery, but also gives the work a feel of movement and multiple depths. I liked this loose, unconventional style, but I am not sure if I can emulate it in my own series or not. For now, I just wanted to make note of it.
