Text for ANTICIPATION 3
'Joanna Slusaczyk’s work explores notions of space and site-specificity, paying homage to 60s and 70s minimalism. Her work explores architectural space and how interventions such as light, lines and free standing objects can allow the viewer to re-evaluate the space they have entered as well as their own presence in the environment.'
Anticipation, Curated by Kay Saatchi, Catriona Warren and Robert Dingle
About Me
- Joanna Slusarczyk
- Artists Statement 2010 ‘What interests me is the quality of light inhabiting a space’ JAMES TURRELL ‘the thing is inseparable from a person perceiving it, and can never be actually in itself because it stands at the other end of our gaze or at the terminus of a sensory exploration which invests it with humanity.’ MAURICE MERLEAU - PONTY Joanna Slusaczyk is a sculptor who investigates space and its impact on the viewer. She explores experience in her work as she believes being surrounded by an artwork intensifies both the understanding of the work as well as the personal interpretation. Her current practice explores architectural space and how interventions such as light, lines and free standing objects can allow the viewer to re-evaluate the space they have entered as well as their own presence in the environment.
