TOO YOUNG TOO LIGHT TO WORK
2014
Chromogenic prints from negative. Neon.
Iceland land of light. Land of thrillingly intense cloud formations and sunsets, almost endless twilight time and glaring bright snow days.
Concurrent is the directness and individualism of Icelandic youth and their relationships to home, work and social situations. They are mature, brash, educated and civic minded. They are without pretension, confident and perfectly calm when facing someone who is essentially a stranger.
This is an exercise in a kind of excess—excess in the flux and compromise that occurs when you communicate across language barriers. When you watch someone work and talk in repetition in a constantly alight landscape.
Exhibited at Bus Projects, Melbourne, 2014.
