Description
Untitled 14, 2014 by Arslan Sükan From the series of While You Are Surfing Inkjet print on fine art paper Size: 150 cm. H x 100 cm. W Edition 1 of 5 + 1AP, Unframed. Additional sizes and prints are available.
The physical gestures that make up our interactions with touch-screen personal devices are intensely intimate, yet abstract signatures of our everyday browsing and messaging patterns. In his ‘While you are surfing’ photographic series, Arslan Sukan scans the surfaces of smartphones and manipulates the resulting images in Photoshop to isolate and enhance the fingerprints, dust, and cracks marking the screens. Sukan separates the intimate swipes and taps of screen navigation from any digital content, enlarging the marks to form anonymous and abstract landscapes. Printed on highly reflective metallic paper using an inkjet printer, each piece mirrors the context of its place of display, transforming the physical world and the body of the viewer into virtual content for the image surface. But, unlike fingers on a screen, the reflections leave no physical trace on their object. With ‘While you are surfing’, Sukan questions whether our experiences with the digital world, which are mediated through a screen, are any less immediate or complete than our encounters with experiences in the physical world. ‘While you are surfing’ continues Sukan’s engagement with the role of artifice in presenting the real. Through a process that moves from the physical world to digital and back again, his work dissolves distinctions between matter and thought, gesture and image. This ongoing translation of material from one media format into other challenges viewer expectations at every turn.
This artwork presents a haunting and ethereal depiction of the cosmos, enveloping viewers in the mysteries of the universe. The canvas is dominated by a dark, nebulous background, punctuated by subtle speckles of white that evoke distant stars. Wisps of iridescent blues and greens swirl across the piece, creating a sense of movement and depth. These spectral colors appear almost luminescent against the dark expanse, suggesting the presence of hidden galaxies and unseen forces. The texture of the brushstrokes adds a tactile dimension, inviting viewers to explore the layers of paint that mimic the vastness of space. This piece uniquely captures the awe-inspiring beauty and complexity of the universe, offering a visual exploration of the infinite and the unknown.
Presentation
Sukan is a multi-faceted artist who is trained in interior architecture and photography and has tackled with ideas that question the limitations of human perception, the borders between the physical and the virtual as well as the visible and the invisible.
Sukan's work positions the artist as a challenging narrator who re-creates an idea or a form that confirm viewer expectations at first glance while undercutting them in practice.
