MOT International presents a group show of three contemporary artists
working with printed matter and photography as a form of sculpture. 'The
book' acts as a portal for these artists, where form exists in a place
between image and object, print and sculpture.
Drawing images from science fiction books, vintage magazines and the props
of mysticism, Will Rogan interrogates the dilemma of time: its
recollection, passage and suspension. Rogan's photographs depict their
given subject while simultaneously making reference to the process of
their production and their own status as photographic 'objects'. Iris
Touliatou works through drawings, collages and sculpture to question the
utopian aspirations of modernism and the inherent theatricality of its
architecture. Making reference to existing urban landscapes to create
speculative abstractions of those yet to be built, Touliatou re-constructs
and re-activates her materials. Investigating the process of storytelling
Zin Taylor draws on lost anecdotes from recent art history. Between
quotatation and narrative Taylor's prints and sculptures mark uncertain
translations of text into form.
