Exploring the ambiguous terrain of photography

In the intricate dance of the photographic journey, uncertainty often becomes a compelling companion. There are instances when I find myself traversing the creative landscape without a fixed destination or a clearly defined roadmap. Yet, amidst this ambiguity, an unmistakable truth prevails – the moment of revelation, that instant when I capture an image that resonates profoundly. The allure of…

Battersea power station, London I think it’s time for a short change of scenery, from landscapes and magnificent mountains to magnificent buildings. This shot is from a summer visit to London, where I have spent many happy and much more carefree years. Don’t worry though, we’ll get back to landscapes soon enough. © Epameinondas Stamos 2023

RESIDENCY ARTIST

Brigitte Jurack

In her most recent projects Brigitte Jurack emphasises the importance of play as a prime activity enabling imagination to produce results as recognised by Friedrich Fröbel (1782-1852) who developed the concept of kindergarten.

Country of Birth: Germany

Overview

In her most recent projects Brigitte Jurack emphasises the importance of play as a prime activity enabling imagination to produce results as recognised by Friedrich Fröbel (1782-1852) who developed the concept of kindergarten. Jurack implements this through the transformation of materials and exploration of play in the context of space. Previous projects by Jurack include work that questioned the relationship between sculpture, photography, memory and place, in the context of the artist as an international globetrotter. This work researched the relationship between architecture, art and tourist, with Jurack travelling across the Baltic States, England and Northern Germany. Her writing of Irfaran- travel and work, 2007, and a collection of 30 sculptures critically reflect on the act of arriving as both tourist and worker and the rhetoric of architecture and regeneration.

Jurack has exhibited widely in the UK and internationally, exhibitions include Irfaran- travel and work, Globe Gallery, Newcastle, 2008; Next Up, Bluecoat, Liverpool, 2008; Klasse Kamp, Kunsthalle, Düsseldorf, 2006, and Red Paradigm, Gogol Festival, Kiev, 2009. Jurack has a Meisterschüler from the Kunstakademie, Düsseldorf, and an MA in Fine Art from Chelsea College of Art and Design, London. Alongside working as an independent artist Jurack is also a founder member of the artists group Foreign Investment.

Process Room

Brigitte’s work was in the Process Room from 10 August to 22 August 2010.

Amanda Charchian

Amanda Charchian (b.Los Angeles) creates work with a feminine sensuality that is simultaneously epic and intimate. Amanda earned a BFA from Otis College of Art and Design in 2010 with a focus on painting and sculpture. Her current practice is focused exclusively on photography.

An exhibition of 2015’s “Pheromone Hotbox” at Stephen Kasher Gallery in NYC evolved into the artist’s first fine art monograph on Hat&Beard Press/Dilettante Paper with the same name. Comprised of images shot between 2012-2015, the book features 27 female artists nude in dramatic locations across the globe, including in Iceland, France, Costa Rica, Morocco, Israel, and Cuba.

In 2018 she exhibited a new body of work at Fahey/Klein Gallery entitled "7 Types of Love" which presents mediations on the seven categories of love as described by Canadian psychologist John Allen Lee based on Greek ideas. Her photographs create visual narratives on romantic, spiritual and dutiful love through a feminine lens.

Charchian’s most recent works entitled MONO, exhibited with Huxley-Parlour gallery at Photo London 2018, combines her background in painting with contemporary nude studies in black and white. A second monograph and solo exhibition will present these works in 2022.

She is represented by Fahey/Klein Gallery in Los Angeles.

Commercial Clients include: Gucci, Bulgari, Chloe, Lancaster, Cartier, Porsche, Versace, Balmain, Nordstrom, Glossier, Sony Music, Vivienne Westwood, Atlantic and Universal Records. Publications include: Vogue UK, Vogue Italia, Garage, i-D, Purple, Numero, and So It Goes.

Amanda lives and works between Los Angeles and Paris.

In the contemporary art world, the cultural perspective of the male gaze is consistently challenged in many different and interesting ways. Los Angeles-based photographer Amanda Charchian is an artist doing just that—her new series, titled ‘Mono’, is part of a new collection that celebrates the female gaze: art created by women, for women. 

Charchian’s ‘Mono’ is part of Huxley-Parlour’s ‘The Female Lens: 9 Contemporary Female Photographers’ at the Photo London 2018 art fair. The body of work explores Charchian’s relationship to female intimacy through the use of multiple art forms, shadows, and color. 

Working within the established trope of nude photography, Charchian creates almost surrealist images that confront the concept of the gaze, whilst informing our sense of abstraction through her use of geometric shapes. Cast against architectural spaces, Charchian’s black and white images are then painted on in primary colors, a technique that is attributed to her artistic inspiration, conceptual artist John Baldessari. “For me, color, texture and form are always the essential elements in art,” Charchian recently told AnOther Magazine. “How do you make something graphic feel sensual? I think everything I’ve ever made has been about intimacy”.

The ‘why’ of my photography

Lately, the simple act of picking up my camera has felt like an insurmountable task. Life’s relentless demands coupled with personal challenges have cast a shadow over my creative pursuits. Yet, amidst the chaos, I find solace in revisiting the fundamental question: why do I photograph? In the early stages of my journey, I swiftly realised that creating solely for the approval of others would…
