Over the course of a year, 50 photographs will be selected and assembled to stimulate an audiences ability to create a narrative. Accompanying each photograph will be text that adds to the "novel's" story. However, the text and images will only provide tacit fragments of the plot. The project is a deliberate attempt to blur the boundaries of reality, fiction, photojournalism and art photography. The series is heavily based on privileging the creative process of both the artist and spectator and how images can be (and often are) transformed and fused with reality to form a subjective narrative.
Ultimately the numerous parallels between images and information will be the fuel to the project. As the process continues, the content of the images will have obvious links to previous captures and the text-content will also promote active connections. It is the individual's innate ability to create both natural and artificial associations within one image and text and then more links within the series. There There attempts to expose the multiplicity inherent in meaning and how randomly merged images and text can create a strong narrative. The point: it is more difficult and unnatural for an observer to discard potential narrative threads than to quickly assemble a story to counter ambiguity/anxiety. The raw materials of There There manufacture a unique symbiosis between image and text, as well as, viewer and art.
