“Gammon's work -- which appears at first to consist of a chaotic black-and-white jumble of imprecisely arranged slices of gleaming foam core, shards of photography and a few bits of architectural modelling -- soon settles out into clearly improvised but deftly controlled assemblages that lie somewhere between built and derelict environments. “
[Gary Michael Dault]
Ideas of architecture, space, shelter, and inhabitation are considered through the disciplines of sculpture, performance, assemblage, photography and collage.
Photographs are cut, re-photographed, enlarged, darkened, re-made, and thrown away, later to be retrieved. Randomly selected images (taken from the cardboard boxes which contain this ever expanding archive), are now glued next to one another, layered one on another, folded, refolded, taped and glued together. Combined with retrieved construction site and household refuse a fragile assemblage is barnacled to the gallery wall. Taken apart and re-built, edited and re-edited, spaces begin to construct themselves, doors open from one room to another. Existing only for the duration of the exhibition the assemblage is then broken apart in the process of removal, its parts returning to the archive as material for future works within this series of ongoing works called SALVAGED.
Lynda Gammon, studied at The University of British Columbia, Simon Fraser University, [B.A. English] and York University [ M.F.A. 1983]. She has exhibited nationally and internationally and is currently an Associate Professor in the Visual Arts Department at the University of Victoria, teaching courses in Foundation Studies, Drawing, Photography, and Open Media.
