22. – 30.06.2013 – PROJECT SPACE OPENING: TODAY 29.06. / 7 PM BÜRO / SONNENALLEE 147 / BERLIN-NEUKÖLLN BY TYSON WASHBURN, USA “PROJECT SPACE” IS SIMULTANEOUSLY AN EXHIBITION AND WORKSPACE FOR THE PRESENTATION OF A SERIES OF PHOTOGRAPHS AND VIDEOS OF SUBJECTS FROM THE OUTSKIRTS OF BERLIN. THESE WORKS DOCUMENT EPHEMERAL ENGAGEMENTS BETWEEN PERSONS OBSERVED AS WELL AS THE TRACES OF INVOLVEMENT BETWEEN THE ARTIST AND THE ENVIRONMENT. THE PHOTOGRAPHS RECORD FOUND OBJECTS PLACED IN THE LANDSCAPE, SUCH AS THREAD MARKING THE SPACE BETWEEN TREES IN A WINTER FOREST. THE VIDEOS MAINTAIN A CONSTANT GAZE AS ALMOST IMPERCEPTIBLE KITES ARE FLOWN IN THE FAR DISTANCE, OR RECORD PERSONS TRAVERSING A CONSTRUCTION SITE THROUGH THE FRAME OF A WINDOW OF THE LAST STANDING WALL OF A MOSTLY DEMOLISHED STRUCTURE, RESOLUTELY IN THE FOREGROUND. OF HIS PROCESS, WASHBURN SAYS: “MY WORK INVOLVES ISOLATION, LANDSCAPE AND INTERACTION. SEEKING THE FRINGES OF THIS CITY AND FINDING A TRANSCENDENT OR A NUMINOUS PLACE TO INTERACT WITH. THESE ADDITIONS AND OBSERVATIONS ARE MY DIALOGUE TO THE NATURAL COMPOSITION. ISOLATION AND OBSERVATION ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF MY PROCESS, AND ONCE REMOVED FROM OTHER CONCERNS, I INTERACT WITH THE LANDSCAPE ON A SUBCONSCIOUS LEVEL. MY PHOTOGRAPHS ARE THE END RESULT OF THESE INTERACTIONS.” TYSON WASHBURN (B. 1979, USA) IS AN ARTIST AND PHOTOGRAPHY INSTRUCTOR BASED IN BERLIN. AWARDS INCLUDE A GRADUATE FELLOWSHIP RESIDENCY AT THE HEADLANDS CENTER FOR THE ARTS (2010), ARTIST’S RESIDENCY AT THE VERMONT STUDIO CENTER (2012), AND COLLABORATION AT I-A-M IN BERLIN-MITTE (2013). HE RECEIVED A BA FROM SONOMA STATE UNIVERSITY (2003) AND MFA FROM SAN FRANCISCO STATE UNIVERSITY (2009) MORE: www.i-a-m.tk/coming-soon.html EVERYBODY WELCOME! --------------------------------------------
