Tim Rod draws
from his photo archive of the last ten years and brings a collection of images
into the space. It's a reflection of his own visual world, which over time
threatened to fade into obscure oblivion.
The mostly digitally stored negative scans, originating from analog sources, become fleeting, invisible data. With his exhibition, he aims to make the images visible again, restore their tactile qualities, and allow them to speak for themselves, with each other, and within the space.
Thus, a portrait taken nine years ago finds itself next to a landscape shot taken a few months ago, forming a new connection together. However, no decision remains final: a combination that seems right today may feel wrong again tomorrow. The infinite possibilities of combining images contradict the initial desire for control that the artist aimed for in his master thesis.
The countless captures born from an insatiable interest in the surface of life become an organic network in the space, seemingly taking on a life of its own. Many small stories merge into a whole and, as an installation, grow into a new narrative once again.
