mbanx
commission
25
Large Scale Framed photoworks
6 etched glass panels with lights
(1997-8)
collaboration with Stan Denniston
our original concept was 'From the 4 corners to the 4 corners'
- exploration in the digital age. (see artists sketches)
we researched historical explorerers such as Marco Polo, Jacques
Cousteau, Amelia Airhardt, James Cook, Henry Hudson, etc.
Taking salient moments from their journals we found landscapes
in Toronto CANADA which could 'stand in' visually for these distant
lands.
Metaphorically and fictionally eliding the foreign and the familiar,
we invite the mbanx employees to wander and wonder through the series
of images.
Works range from 6 feet x 12 feet to 4 feet x 8 feet.
