PHOTO 2021 Artists' Talk: Not for the Sake of Something More
Event Information
About this Event
Kiron Robinson, curator, Not for the sake of something more, will discuss the exhibition with exhibiting artists Sanja Pahoki and Ali McCann in an informal artists' talk.
This exhibition explores photography beyond its representational fidelity to engage with the doubtful action of looking.
Photographs no longer reflect the world; rather the world reflects them. They deliver a version of reality that at surface level is consumed as ‘truth’. As such, photographs demand an act of faith.
Participating artists will explore questions such as What is photography today? How can the photographic image represent in a post-truth deep fake world? And how can artists say anything with a medium that requires such faith?
Presented as part of PHOTO2021, The Truth
