Chemistry - Alchemy

Contemporary Art | Ryan Foerster represented by the Clearing Gallery, seen at the 2012 FIAC and at Armory Shaw 2013, is developing an œuvre that goes against the grain in expurgating the very idea of representation in order to infiltrate the mysterious world of the Sensible. Chemical experiments carried out on the very matter of photographic papers exposed to the elements : water, wind, dirt, storms, solarisation, and so on. Nature is absorbed into them and chance incorporated. These relics of sensibility capture and allow to appear the dissipated substance of a process of transformation, the coming into being of a world, The Abyss
