Zero Point

Wilde, Tine

Regular price €87,00

“From 2020 through 2023 a single glass was taken as the starting point for transformational processes, in which photographic images were changed into thirty-eight multi-playered compositions distributed over four series of pictureworks. Pictorial spaces that are variable and subject to chance in an experimental, unconscious method of choice, inspiration and demolition. The results of split, remodel and repeat invite the viewer to explore and contemplate the notions of space and time as a dimension in which meaning remains something definitely unfinished, but in which measurability is crucial. After all, when there is nothing to hold on to, we have to choose a point of departure from which we can (re)organise our life.

Artists' book Zero Point investigates the nature of God from a spatial geometrical perspective. The philosophical photo book examines our interactions with the concept of 'measurability'. The boundaries between fixed and fluid; between sharp and vague; between coloured and non-coloured; between love and hate. When does one state of affairs turn into the other? When is something still measurable? And: is it essential for something to be measurable at all?”

This book presents the process of an investigation into the concept of ‘measurability’ in thirty-eight images showing kaleidoscopic-looking photographs of glass accompanied by philosophical thought experiments, with a fold-out page in the back, printed on heavy stock.
