I SEE YOU – 14 ARTISTS IN A DIALOGUE IN COLLABORATION WITH HARPER’S BAZAAR NL @bildhalle Amsterdam Friday, 13 September, 18 - 21h
Special thanks to @mirjamcavegn & @miluskavantlam who have curated this exhibition.
"I SEE YOU" is a reflection on a dialogue that references appreciation and true connection. It’s a direct acknowledgment of the “other”.
We’re honoured to be in this exibition "in dialogue" with one artist that we highly admire: Richard Caldicott @richardcaldicott He’s one of the main representatives of constructed photography. A key set of his work is a series of still lifes created using ordinary plastic containers.
By playing with the interaction of light and colour, Caldicott no only makes the viewer forget about the quotidian use of these objects, but also emphasizes the qualities of the photographic medium itself, producing objects independent of any antecedent reality.
His innovative approach to photography opened our eyes to the medium's potential for creative expression. This style of work suggests that photography, through its interplay with light, time and chance, can create images that challenge conventional perceptions and interpretations. . In our "Polarized" series, which is part of our "Opticks" project, we continue using photography to explore the 'structure of reality' and 'the why of things,' echoing Berenice Abbott's vision of photography as “the friendly interpreter of science.” Unlike previous series, this one investigates natural components that are normally invisible, except through experiments that make them visible.
Transparent objects, especially plastics, subtly alter how light passes through them, changes that are invisible to the naked eye. However, when exposed to polarized light and observed through a second polarizer, hidden internal differences reveal vibrant colors and shades of gray. . As Duane Michals states: "Photography deals with appearances, but nothing is ever as it seems."

Oliver Patrice Weder - The Shoe Factory - the cover art (by Richard Caldicott) drew me in; it fits the music, "ambient-classical chamber jazz" if I had to put a genre on it
The Shoe Factory is the ambitious and lush new instrumental album by composer, producer and sound designer Oliver Patrice Weder. As he moved to his new home, he landed in a former shoe factory in a small village in the middle of the Tramuntana mountains of Mallorca. As his research about the village and history of the shoe factory went on, he found that there were over 60 shoe factories placed within and around his village. He decided to go and visit some of these still intact factories, equipped with microphones to capture the sound of these machines and the overall factory ambience. The employees were so passionate about their work and their role within the overall process of creating a shoe, and some of them had been at the exact same machine for 40 years. In getting to know these folks, he discovered that the sound of these machines was an integral part of their childhood and upbringing. In the summer months it gets so hot that the doors are kept open and the sound of the factories spills into the streets of the villages, for all locals to hear. With this, the sounds of the factory all of the sudden became a really meaningful thing and they became the sonic inspiration for the entire album. He combined these sounds with a brass trio, a saxophone and his usual piano and electronics - all recorded at his own shoe factory - to form the sound palette of the album. Composed, produced, arranged and mixed by Oliver Patrice Weder Piano, wurlitzer, synthesizer and electronics : Oliver Patrice Weder Alto Saxophone : Florencio Cruz French Horn : Rodrigo Martinez Peña Trombone : Tomeu Garcias Percussion: Juan Espiga
