Untitled 5 from the series of INtheVISIBLE, 2013 By Arslan Sukan Archival inkjet print on baryta photographic paper Image size: 170 cm x 255 cm Edition 1/3 + 1AP Signed and Unframed.

 Sukan’s photographic work explores the conventions of the modern white cube as both an architectural context and as a content subject in and of itself. By addressing the notions of spatial memory, presentation and representation, this exhibition enhance the confrontation between visibility and invisibility in social and phenomenological terms. By means of deconstruction, intervention, and reconstruction of the white cube, Sukan brings complicity between opposites and creates dualism between recognition and non-recognition, visibility and invisibility, abstraction and concrete concepts. The result is an entirely new space, an architecture of past and future, with a continuously shifting viewpoint. Sukan proposes a phenomenal situation, challenging the viewer on the realism of the photograph and the memory of a space, while also opening up the horizons of the viewer’s perception and interpretation of the exhibition's/ their own immediate setting. Additional sizes and prints are available.
