April 13 - 27: Immersive Camera Obscura installation by Angela Snieder
Darkening Ground is a two-person exhibition of print and installation works drawing from alternative lens-based processes. With ecological unease informing their work, Snieder and Wedderspoon look to the ground, or even the dirt, as a malleable surface that both remembers and forgets, preserves and erodes. Revealing constructed natural spaces, Snieder’s prints and analog projections engage with questions of truth and artifice related to experience, perception and photo-based technologies. Raising questions about human and non-human agency, Wedderspoon uses a flatbed scanner to capture enlarged compositions of objects found on the ground, heightening the tension between intellectual and emotional responses to ecological crisis.
