The exhibition The Helsinki School - Out of The Depths of Photography continues its tradition, from its very beginning, of pushing the boundaries of how we perceive and interpret the photographic image. This presentation features a variety of investigations in exploring how different materials, from fabrics and multiple layered collages, to folded negatives built into sculptures, can all be utilized to form a new language in developing the photographic process in today’s landscape. It’s a joined effort to push the material qualities of how we define a physical photograph in an attempt to recover its magic as an object. This is the first fully dimensional overview from any of the previous Helsinki School presentations to challenge these existing parameters conceptually.
