In Tatjana Vall’s first solo exhibition at BRITTA RETTBERG, the Munich and Berlin-based artist examines photography and its inherent production and perceptual promises of memory and time. The exhibited works allow various temporal dimensions to intersect, in which technology-driven uncertainties and potentials of the present converge with historical questions about the technical eye. Photographic experimentation, optical instruments, and technical apparatuses that structure our lives become both subject and method of investigation.
Multi-layered pigment prints on aluminum panels cite the materiality of the daguerreotype, that early photographic process of the 19th century in which light inscribes itself directly into metal. Yet in Vall’s digital image production, surfaces are not singularly marked by light—rather, digital processes simulate its trace. The basis of the works are motifs generated from found images and subsequen…
