Artist's Comments
from the book:
half truths | whole lies 2009 statement: A Healthy Fear (Of Everything) is an ongoing body of work currently comprised of four books, each representing a different period of life, until now, never explored from anywhere but a safe distance. A Healthy Fear... retains the usual devices implemented in previous work: models in metaphors, satire, and the third person; to hint at, allude to and suggest, while relying fully on these contrivances in past work, they serve now to contrast with the starkness of an photographic and textual narrative that dispenses with such facetious embellishment. Elements of image and text, appropriated and original, interact; as one explains, the other illustrates, one suggests, the other confirms. In each book I've explored different themes: the family album, the children's story, the case study, and the diary, there is overlap in every book, but each retains something unique that required a separation in style, sequence and form. [.....] Half-Truths|Whole Lies appeals directly to the viewer, asking forgiveness. This is a very brief introduction, yet it intimates a knowledge of the previous volumes, and current happenings. While this book is stylistically very different than the previous installments, comprised of contemporaneous original photography, with the use of colour indicating the present, the first sentence makes it known that it is connected to what has come before. The use of psychology texts continue, this chapter marks a period of time of intensive psychiatric analysis. The text is carefully chosen to reflect comments and incidents occurring during this stage. The images and appropriated text alternate between abstractions, and literal translations of events. The narrative intersperses with the established rhythm to speak conversationally to the viewer. In narrating my life truthfully I can walk away from the history of a war I’ve fought with fate and circumstance, I win. |
