Artspace Project Wall, Brandon Forrest Frederick The Emily & Todd Voth Artspace at the Kansas City Art Institute is pleased to announce a new Artspace Project Wall that draws upon its 25-year history of engagement with important KCAI-affiliated artists and collaborators. For this project, Chicago-based guest curator Madeline Gallucci (’12 Printmaking) has partnered with artist Brandon Forrest Frederick (’11 Photography) to create a new work for the Artspace’s Project Wall. In An illusive view in an illuminated field, Frederick builds on his ongoing interest in the natural world, beauty, contemporary states of being, and photography within our physical and digital lives. In Frederick’s image, he combines gestures of landscape and still life, alongside manipulations of collage and sculpture, then packages and compresses them within a single picture plane. Frederick’s composition suspends time in multiple forms: where the hand has pressed and crumpled, and where gradient and light suggest a continuous space that is, at once, both flattening and infinite. An illusive view in an illuminated field explores the collapse of distance between image and material, form and concept, where gradients become spaces of transition, play, and pause. The work resists the disembodiment of digital life, offering a tactile and organic counterbalance to our collective consumption of images online.
