When we see, we see codes
On August 10th, CSA Space will be presenting a solo exhibition by Graeme Wahn, Recent & Selected Works (Wing Nut). This exhibition sees Graeme maintaining a photographic work ethic aimed to re-present a vision of material worlds through conventions of photographic seeing.
The exhibition features around fifteen individual works - modestly sized colour photographs set within wooden frames & compositions. The works are handmade, and their meager tactility is likened to imprecise spaces depicted within the images. It’s if you see things flat, and look at a lot of level surfaces. There are also signs, and with scrawls, different marked paper and how it sits square - and then, in the same way, it also gets tightened too, because it reads itself and knows how it forms.
Since graduating from Emily Carr in 2015 Graeme has exhibited at Gallery 295, UNIT/PITT Projects, Flux Gallery in Winnipeg, Penticton Art Gallery, as well as the Vancouver Art Gallery. He continues to live and work in Vancouver and is beginning an MFA at SFU’s School for Contemporary Art in the fall.
