from GA: Plunkett uses the serial processes of printmaking, publishing and casting to create prints, paintings and sculptures that re-interpret the existing world in new forms and materials. Plunkett is equal parts archivist and editor. She mines culture, digging, sourcing and hunting. This site-specific installation features concrete sculptures, architectural interventions and works on paper. Read More…
from S. Tillmans: The Luminant Point Arrays show tube televisions in the moment they are swithed off. The television picture breaks down and creates a structure of light. The pictures refuse external reference and broach the issue of the difference between abstraction and concretion in photography. The breakdown of the television picture discribes the breakdown of the reference. The product is self-referential photography.
