Mold by Julia Varis

“I collected the dead roots and leaves from my friends’ plants that had been left in my care over the holidays and used them as a starting point for my installations. The creating process felt organic, as if I was aiding the fractals that resembled my blood veins and the plants to slowly grow all over the flat. The structure of the lungs manifested itself in cigarettes, bringing the inside out. The fractals seemed to bring my emotional and mental reality into the physical one. While looking at the moldy walls of especially the bathroom, I was reminded how the word ‘home’ means ‘mold’ in Finnish, which later became the title for this series.” (x)

Thomas Ruff, 00h 46m / -30°, 1992

Thomas Ruff has regularly used scientific photographs as source material for his work and came across the NASA pictures while doing research into the image-generating potential of photography. He was utterly fascinated with the extremely realistic, naturalistic and yet strange photographs of a universe that exists outside the range of conventional human experience. In working with this material Ruff transformed the images taken straight down at a perpendicular from the orbiter into a slanted view. The resulting pseudo- perspective and the added color to the black-and-white shots emphasize the extraordinary feel of the landscapes but without changing their character. The ma.r.s series once again demonstrates the Ruff’s ability in exploiting state of- the-art technology in striking combinations of matter-of- fact documentation and formal elegance. His approach is a collaboration between a scientific spirit and imagination that spans a few centuries.
