Robyn Moore: Being in the Land
October 7 - November 26, 2022
Being in the Land is a series of photopolymer gravure prints inspired by my desire to make contact with the memory and intelligence embodied by landscapes. By making aspects of the land’s more latent phenomena visible and material I hope to understand more about its biological histories, prehistories, capabilities and meaning. I rely on my art practice to foster empathy for others present in the land and to help me imagine their worlds, lives and experiences. In so doing, I hope to experience and express solidarity with myriad forces and entities, both human and other-than-human, that otherwise might be lost or unknown.
To create these works I discover landscapes that I find haunting, evocative and communicative. I then photograph myself in motion while wrapped in a silver emergency blanket during extended photographic exposures. Within this aesthetic process, I seek to conjure images that challenge the limits of my own knowledge and, hopefully, traverse the gap between the seen and the felt. Indeed, by incarnating the more spectral phenomena sensed in the land, I hope that the images from Being in the Land might encourage viewers to see the feeling of others inherent in all landscapes.
These pieces are no longer for sale in our gallery - but if you're interested in buying one, please email us and we will contact the artist!
