Time and Seeing exhibits selections from nathaniel stern’s Compressionism - a "digital performance and analog archive.” Stern traverses bodies, spaces and objects with his scanner face, while the head is in motion. After being Compressed into digital images the size of a small sheet of paper, the files are then stretched, cropped and colored by hand. Compressionism is an exploration of media and perception, a transfiguration in Time and Seeing.
*The 11 pieces on show at Outlet are a preview for a large-scale exhibition of Compressionist works - ranging from photographic to traditional prints - in negotiation for early next year @ Art on Paper gallery, Johannesburg.

A very interresting concept, a new inventive way to see elements and transform then in real pieces of art. I like the way to show us Emmarentia Lilies by exemple.
Have a good time in Outlet Gallery Nathaniel.
See you !
LE POULAILLER :-)
