JOSEPH MOORE

DISPLACEMENTS
A solo exhibition of photographic prints and video works

MAY 8 - JUNE 6, 2021
 

A series of prints, photocopies of anachronistic objects: yesterday’s computer and TV screens. Destined to become landfill before they enter the market, a future architecture of our built environment. “Blueprint,” the word initially referred to Prussian blue copies of architectural plans made with the cyanotype process. Environment and obsolescence connect in troubling ways.

Video recordings of Foucault’s Pendulums, their frames rearranged according to the position of the pendulum rather than chronological time, creating a simultaneous appearance of continuity and fragmentation. Captured using online IP cameras, these objects attest to a particular place, their movement fixed to a position on the earth’s surface. Nonetheless, their images unhinged and transmitted to anywhere with a connection to the internet, an exemplary but common aspect of the online photographic image.

Joseph Moore is a contemporary artist who lives and works in New York. His practice utilizes a variety of techniques and media, from chemical photography to computer-based networks. His recent work investigates photography’s history, materiality, and relationship to the non-human, labor, and temporality. His work has been exhibited in venues such as The NARS Foundation, Brooklyn, NY; Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Tel Aviv, Israel; Microscope Gallery, Brooklyn, NY; MH Project NYC, NY, NY; WORM, Rotterdam, The Netherlands; Arebyte, London, England; The New Museum, NY, NY; and is found in such collections as The Rose Goldsen Archive of New Media Art at Cornell. He received his B.F.A. from The Atlanta College of Art and his M.F.A. from Bennington College.
