Installation 26

Installation 26
Art installation by Ghislaine MacIlquham on Atlas Ave. in Toronto.

Toronto artist Ghislaine MacIlquham mainly works with sculpture. Her sculptures directly respond to the surrounding environment and use everyday experiences from the artist as a starting point. Often these are framed instances that would go unnoticed in their original context. With a conceptual approach, she makes work that generates diverse meanings. Associations and meanings collide. Space becomes time and language becomes image.

Her works question the conditions of appearance of an image in the context of contemporary visual culture in which images, representations and ideas normally function.

Very clever...................an art installation that looks exactly like a staircase..!!

..............or am I missing something here?

That's not to say it isn't a good photo John........I like the detail you've captured and the shadows on the wall.

Thanks, Keith. Well, apinting of a staircase often looks exactly like a staircase. All Ghislaine has done here is eliminate time lost to recreating the staircase. Art is no longer the imitation of life, but life itself!

Seriously, I got this idea from Uncle Lynx (aka Bill Kimber) on Flickr. He said one of my photos of a derelict building resembled an installation, and I realized there are a lot of things around that resemble installations. Most of them are ephemeral, too, which is a good reason to photograph them.
