Travelling Notations   2009

Travelling Notations is a collection of photo-based artworks and videos, which relate to the human condition with all its varied implications. This exhibition incorporates digital photography and video, video stills. drawing, creative writing, and sculptural processes. Interweaving the 'found" with the "created," through computer manipulation, these photographic elements subtly transform. The artworks stand as visual metaphor for the human journey. The Travelling Notations is based on sensory input, climactic shifts, and evidentiary verification - coupled with the human dichotomies of life, such as, weight/lightness. presence/absence, and freedom/constraint. Sometimes the work is about passage and at other times it is about stasis–endur­ance, and grounding.
