Powers of two: Michael Snow | SOLO SHOW
«My work is about making shapes»
Michael Snow's work offers an examination of the question of representation and of the conventions relative to the perception of artworks, through the use of various media. His aesthetic process is ruled by the fact of experimenting the specificities and inherent limitations of each technique, be it video, music, painting, photography, film, digital imagery, installation, or performance.
The exhibition « Powers of Two » presents a selection of works by Michael Snow, with the theme of the double as a common denominator : double entendre with puns, as well as doubles inside the images or the materials used. Images with two sides or showing transparencies reveal a true physicality of photography. Still, playing with the light and integrating the visitor episodically, this materiality is rather subtle. Photography evolves from private event to public presentation. The body, as subject of this initial intimacy, is present throughout the exhibition.
