Exhibition 2: BLINK –
In concuction with the Kuala Lumpur International Photography Bienale
Sharon Lam, Rizal Zainudin (Malaysia ), Morten Krogvold (Norway ), Paul Gad ( England )
Morten Krogvold from Norway is one of the 12 chosen top international photographers by Hasselblad, is now top of his international career.
Krogvold's works blends distance with intimacy, minimalism with maximum impact. The portraits of people in his black & white images appear amid landscapes or alone against a neutral backdrop with their faces functioning as landscapes. But they never stray from the core of Morten Krogvold's characteristic signature: His sense of form.His creativity, involvement and professionalism show in his images thoroughly his warmth and respect for his subject of people regardless of their place in society. He often creates a closeness to the people he portrayed in his images.
In his career, he has traveled extensively and among some of his experiences he also had indifference in Bosina. He found a gipsy woman on the street with a 13 hour old baby. She had been expelled from the delivery room after a Caesarean operation because she had no health insurance. No photo taken was taken. It was one of the occasions on which he failed to find the distance necessary to create a buffer of indifference, or its twin: cynicism.
Sharom Lam's images document the interaction of a space that explores the sensory experience within urban environment, using a medium format camera.To examine the architectural and interior design as well as the more personal aesthetic choices we make in our daily lives. To re-examine how these common spaces reflect our desires and the ability to function as feeling, thinking individual?With the examination of sites that are design for human action, sites that offer the potential for contemplation in the area of our perception to the space.Through the use of straight documentary image making techniques, to explore the ritual of living, my images are emptied of human presence, with the chief aim to invite audience to pay close attention to the processes under consideration and to become aware of that often involuntary attention. By casting an analytical gaze on spaces and the functions of humans within the space, I hope to explore and conserve what is general and unique in the human experience. Reality or fantasy, it is our current reflection of the world. Its not about the generic nature of our contemporary world, but about its becoming and its potential.
Paul Gadd sees colours and wants tocapture them like painting rather than photographs. His photographs are mainly abstracts; the images represent real or imagined objects by focusing on the shapes and patterns, lines and colours rather in the structure or form they exist in. He is drawn to natural elements as subject matter - on their own or their effect on man made objects.
Duration:18 till 31 August
