| Carsten Ikeda : Evolving Inside
- 1968 Old memories are found and dragged back to present to our imaginations. A constant oscillation between reality and fiction, fiction and documentary, the communal and the private realm of the individual is offered, all around us the fundamentals of life are crying out to be shaped or created, within each work a 'statement' functions to describe the continuum within a balance of constants and variables; while the work documents a personal approach to investigating questions about politics and buildings and living space. The current works represent earth art that celebrates how we're all connected on the one web of life; the use of texts or single words to engage the viewer; the success of Evolving Inside lies in this very process, images are exactly truthful representations of what they record, the strangeness they represent is all carefully setup before the shot is taken. The current works represent earth art that celebrates how we're all connected on the one web of life. Together these elements form within their layering an illusion of architectural dimensionality which never denies its inherent flatness. |
