Amado Art Space presents the solo
exhibition “Loop: The Tail Wagging the Dog” by artist Uri Han until October 19.
Uri Han explores the fading objects and the
worlds they inhabit. She focuses on subjects that have the power to structure
sensory experience, such as techniques of reproduction, mediation, and
documentation, as well as the faith placed in such techniques. The artist
weaves together narratives of these worn and crumbling objects and their worlds
through various allegories.
In this exhibition, “Loop: The Tail Wagging
the Dog,” the artist highlights film as an old medium of representation and the
film-cinema environment. The exhibition reflects on the past and present of
today's technologies, which are now dominated by efficiency, convenience,
immediacy, and non-mediation, following the historical trajectory of film.
Additionally, it deals with the
contradictions and dilemmas of technology—once believed to be progressing
forward—through allegories of repetition, return, inversion, and reversal.
