Jacinta Giles
11 March - 4 April 2020
Jan Manton Art is pleased to present Jacinta Giles, a Brisbane-based artist whose conceptually driven photographic practice explores the complex relationship between perception, memory and temporality within contemporary culture.
In using unconventional photographic processes—which take their cues from how memory operates—the images oscillate between movement and stillness and the seen and unseen. Through the cutting away of images from the flux of everyday visual experience, their elements are intrinsically displaced in the strange and confined space of the photograph.
In this collection of work the photograph becomes a distancing device, challenging us to an awareness of the structures of visual perception that organise memory. These works also reflect the artist’s commitment to contesting the boundaries of traditional notions of lens-based art, blurring the line between painting, photography and the filmic.
