I am Nesia Exhibition Series
Chris Slabber
ᱯᱷᱚᱴᱚᱜᱨᱟᱯᱷᱤ I am Nesia Exhibition Series ᱛᱮ Chris Slabber I am Nesia is a photography series about the effects of the 2020 lockdown on the human spirit. Each image was made by turning the lens focus in the wrong direction, so that landscapes became soft fields of colour that resemble watercolour paintings. A dark figure was then added to each scene as a metaphor for fear and anxiety, and a grain texture completes the compositions. The series is produced as large format light boxes of 1200 by 2000 millimetres. The intent is to record a period of uncertainty and to show that people can adapt and prevail.
