Archival pigment print on baryta photo paper.
29x29"
Limited edition 1 of 15.
A kaleidscopic abstraction based on a source image of a relief sculpture on the side of the old Toronto Board of Education office. In this image, you can see a figure kneeling in front of the "lamp of learning". This piece marks the changes in the education system after the homophobic attack on Ken Zeller, a teacher, who died from the incident.
Thomas Brasch, a lens-based artist, transforms landscape and architectural source images into vibrant and complex circular geometries. He offers a novel way to reinterpret and visualize daily commonalities, transforming beauty into the sublime.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
His series, Out of the Darkness, acts as a form of public memory that documents, educates and commemorates tragic events of senseless violence. The final message is one of hope and optimism.
