NANA MANDL / AT
“Folks look into their cell telephones or pose in entrance of mirrors for selfies. A collection by Nana Mandl, whose pictures of those scenes had been taken with cell phones: they’re pictures of the everyday pictures that accumulate within the photograph archives of our smartphones. And they’re pictures that say as a lot about one’s personal self and actuality as they do concerning the time and setting through which they had been created. However whereas the protagonists depicted take a look at the sleek, reflective display screen of their cellphone, we see them depicted in patchwork textiles, embroidery and overpainting in Mandl’s work. As a substitute of flawless smoothness, the surfaces have seen seams and brush strokes. Gently shimmering surfaces and coarser woven patterns that just about take in the sunshine slide into one another or overlap one another. The colours are cheerful, powdery pastels just like the promoting campaigns of drugstore chains or bubble tea producers. The individuals depicted all appear to be younger, to have the ability to discover their method round this client world, and that is their self-designed look in it. Made potential by know-how that floods our on a regular basis lives with data that entices us to immerse ourselves in different realities – and which, on the identical time, charged with private reminiscences, has grow to be a part of our id. We devour pictures and create our personal pictures, which we incorporate into the collective move of pictures.”
