“Generations”
Fassih Keiso
29 Feb → 22 Mar 2008
Fassih Keiso works across media including digital and analog photography, film and digital video, installation and performance. His work deals with issues of the human body, the impact of technology and contemporary culture on humanity. It also directs awareness to the impact of globalization on art production, and reflects on issues of identity, dislocation, and East and West.
Generations explores the local community and myths that embody aspects of our culture and highlight the diversity in our society, and explores the impact of 21st century politics and culture on humanity and art production. Technically, the work explores the impact of digital tools on current art photography production, highlighting the transition that occurs in photography from analogue to digital by adopting and mixing the two techniques.
Fassih Keiso has shown widely nationally and internationally including at Artspace, Sydney; Museum of Modern Art and ISCP, New York; and across the Middle East and Asia.
