I have an intense relationship with photography. There are days I just love its history, current identity and its future. Most of the days I find it a challenge to find my connection to it, this is also its quality. Photography has so many varieties, in my practice I render different aspects of the medium. The medium is stretched into zones it wasn’t foreseen to end up. You can look at it in a positive way and think it gives a lot of power to the medium or you can say that it is jaded. Photography started as a slow medium but it’s becoming the most rejected medium which we immediately swipe away after we have consumed it. Because of the lack or the amounts of identities, I feel I can push it into unknown zones. My photographic practice is intertwined with strategies used in drawing and painting. Nevertheless, it always becomes a photograph.

What role does publishing play in your practice and in particular in your work Seeing a rainbow (through a window that isn’t there) and FUNGI ?

The camera, material, (print-)technique, size and installation have always been important in my practice. I only start to realize what I’m working with if I touch, interact and feel the physical photographic image. Publishing and editing is one of those actions. Seeing a rainbow and FUNGI have been book projects from the beginning on.

Publishing is also a space where I and my work can interact with words. I never chose to have a theoretical text accompanying my publications, in Seeing a rainbow there are seven e-mail conversations published on the theme of beauty. With FUNGI, Hannah De Meyer wrote a text/story starting from my images. It blends in perfectly with the design of Ine Meganck & Chloé D’hauwe and references another book by the same author.

What are you working on at the moment?

I’m working on a project called The Natural Contract. Here I focus on mark trees (Grenzbäume). These are planted species in the landscape according to agreements between countries, town halls, provinces, landlords, … and mark an individual or communal boundary or change. In recent time the tree has become part of the landscape and lost its code and symbolic value. A tree becomes a dot on a map, a reference. With a changing environment and shifting landscape, these trees move from being cultural-historical bearers to non-information in a panorama. They fade again into the invisibility.

Der Beitrag Meanwhile in Brussels — Interview with Dries Segers erschien zuerst auf malenki.net.

The Golden Ass, on the art of metamorphosis
Nov, 6 to Nov, 8, 2019 at In de Ruimte in Ghent.

THE GOLDEN ASS is the title of the only ancient book in latin to survive in its entirety (late 2nd century AD). The plot revolves around a certain Lucius. A curious guy with an insatiable desire to see and practice magic. Alas…. his spells accidentally transform him into an ass. This leads through a long journey, literal and metaphorical.

The exhibition reveals a mutual quest for magic and wonderment, the meeting of the mundane and the sublime, the struggle between body and mind and the trade-off between power structures and the individuals’ life.

Participating artists
Lucas Leffler, Katrin Kamrau, Dries Segers, Simona Mihaela Stoia, Willem Vermoere, Markus von Platen and Flor Maesen; partly in collaboration with Fons Artois
