Free Artist Talk at Riverside Arts Center with Jay Wolke
Photographer Jay Wolke writes: "Big Boat Little Pond is a photographic project that focuses on the disparities between design and consumption; spaces and systems that characterize intersections of nature, architecture, and habitation. The environments that I investigate reflect the continuous re-imaginings of human enterprise and reveal the individual and institutional stratifications of ambition and power that dominate the visual landscape. I understand the built environment as an expression of multiple, historical narratives – interwoven and frequently at cross-purposes. As an observer and as a documentarian, I grapple with these often, capricious relationships by producing images composed of visual hierarchies – signifiers described through the language of large-format, color photography. In my attempt to clarify and amplify these conditions, I’m presenting a grammar for visual learning; my photographs are intended to suggest purposeful neutrality, but my hope is to present a web of selected non-fictions inducing apprehension and scrutiny."
