Asylum of the Birds


sintesi del comunicato stampa

Roger Ballen's photographs transiting between the real and the imaginary. In his photographic work in black and white, animals and humans, cleanliness and dirt, the living and the dead, real and imagined mix. Although most of his work (especially from 1970 to the 1990s) follows the guidelines of documentary photography, his works have a psychological atmosphere of unreality that makes them different. And it transforms Ballen and mixing social issues with the internal affairs own blurring the boundaries between reportage photography and other arts such as painting and sculpture. For his first solo at The Factory, Roger Ballen show of his latest project, Asylum of the Birds, a group of images taken over the first decade of 2000 inside a house in the suburbs of Johannesburg whose location kept secret. The inhabitants of the house, people, animals and especially birds, are the protagonists of these images, lectures and choreographed whose compositions provide powerful sculptural and psychological presence of timeless character. The exhibition consists of 16 photographs is completed with the inclusion of a video made by the author.
