Tinsquo’s curatorial project, Adjacent To Life, presents Fractal Flâneuse by Lauren Kushnick.
She states:
“Buildings say so much about ourselves. I love walking through cities and unearthing people’s stories through the textures and layers of life etched on a faded facade. My process begins with a long meandering walk in search of interesting moments where color, pattern and chance combine. Once found, I enjoy manipulating each image to fold space upon itself until the essence of the place is emphasized. The moment when a hard surface becomes malleable is truly satisfying.
“In this collection I have tried to strike a balance between recognizable environments and fractal-like abstractions of urban life. As a native New Yorker, most of these images are drawn from my walks around NYC, but I have included a few works from further afield. No matter where you are from or where you live, I hope these images help you to find balance in the chaos, embrace the random, and encourage you to take a good long walk.”
Fractal Flâneuse runs through May 3 and is on view at the Adjacent to Life pop-up gallery housed in Ninth Street Espresso (341 E. 10th Street at Ave B, New York City). Artist Reception: Thursday, April 11, 6:00-8:00pm.
