The Arc | Illumination, Ritual, Reflection
A two-part exhibition, Curated by Jen Ervin
The Redux Contemporary Art Center
Charleston, South Carolina,
On View: April 5 – May 19, 2019
The Arc is a multi-media presentation of work created by artist Jen Ervin, a Redux Studio Artist alumna (2011-2014). This collection bridges polaroid with experimental filmmaking to create a rhythmic exploration of place. Ervin’s polaroids evoke a vulnerability relatable to the human condition and the evolution of memory. They are installed in an asymmetrical grid alluding to a narrative with no beginning, middle or end, yet offers continuum. Ervin’s films offer an extension of the experience to the viewer, drawing in on universal archetypes and a sense of timelessness.
Illumination, Ritual, Reflection is an invitational group exhibition curated by Jen Ervin. It brings to focus the provocative work of nine contemporary photographers: Rebecca Drolen, Noelle McCleaf, Jordanna Kalman, Richard McCabe, Neal Casal, Ashley Gates, John Lusk Hathaway, Michael McCraw and Jesse Koechling.
The show aims to demonstrate how creativity can illuminate the relationship between ourselves and the ever-shifting landscape (societal, ecological, psychic) through rituals and reflections.
MARCH 2019
THE ARC book is now available for preorder Release, early March.
.....
one small offering,
of radiant particulars,
of collaboration,
visions and dreams
all born from a peculiar place
where time and words
stretch and reshape
their meaning
in an Arc.
