ALEX BUNN


 

"A system is simply the subordination of an aspect of the universe to that aspect of the universe" Jorge Luis Borges

Anxious tones run through Bunn’s work, simultaneously causing seduction and repulsion. The worn down cast of a cast of a cast acts as a measure of uncertainty in its degradation, highlighting a potential disorganisation within systems. Over time defects reign over their host and textural incompatibilities become evident. The viewer is forced to observe potentially horrifying microscopic detail whilst the surface of the photograph retains distance in its abstract beauty.
