We’re delighted to announce that Soft Turns, a collaborative effort of LVAC members Wojciech Olejnik and Sarah Jane Gorlitz, is the 2023-24 Artist-in-Residence at the Gallery 44 Centre for Contemporary Photography.
Alongside simple mechanisms—pulleys, mirrors, paper, lenses—and crucially, their own bodies, the artists use stop-motion animation’s capacity to stretch and collapse time, to attempt to get as close as possible to the rhythms of their subjects. The results are slow-paced, immersive, intimate video-centred installations.
You can learn more about Sarah Jane and Wojciech’s work at the Gallery 44-in-Residence Meet and Greet at 401 Richmond on May 6th. Please visit the G44 event page to register.
