ESCAPE RECONSTRUCT

EXHIBITION AT A SPACE GALLERY, BROOKLYN NY

‘Danish artist Mathilde Brandi manifests her ‘reconstruction’ through the use of photographs and 8mm footage collected during the escape, reworked at A Space Gallery using painting, drawing, and other multimedia expressions. She delves into the theme of transition, portraying the ruin as a peripheral space between the city and the suburb, past and present. Through body parts taken out of place, enmeshed between themselves and their environment, she creates new configurations of disembodied anatomies. Brandi uses figures who do not have any identities, mirroring travelers who have lost their sense of directions.’

five prints and a three piece video installation
