SPECTROGRAPH: Maximus Clarke + Ted Hayes

Opening: Friday, August 19th, 2011. On view until August 28th, 2011

Can images and sounds be understood through their decomposition—and how are we to decompose them? Maximus Clarke's and Ted Hayes’ split show at Devotion Gallery peers through images and tears apart sound in an effort to limn their boundaries and recapitulate them in new forms, consuming their source media in the process.

Clarke's "3DOLATRY: Constructions + Deconstructions I-VI” is a series of anaglyph stereographic portraits that evoke a hyperreal yet synthetic continuum, then morph into impossible compositions that subvert both the 3D medium and the truths of vision itself. (Anaglyph 3D glasses will be provided for viewing the images.)

Hayes' “Deconspectrum” guts our monolithic perception of sound and lays out its component viscera in the form of flickering, colored light-cubes, leaving them out in the open to decompose into a new and unprecedented autonomy.
