A new group of photographic collages will also be presented. Untitled (Monument) (2008-09) addresses and challenges the tradition of the monumental explored in art and architecture while extending the boundaries of photography as a medium. The images are based on sequential photographs of a man holding a piece of construction material with which he maps out shapes in the air. Pulled out of order and cut into fragments, the collages generate a vision of architecture that references the passing of time by juxtaposing multiple moments into one image.

“Tim Hyde’s attentiveness to the production of images in film and photography is evident in his work, and the ways in which it challenges interpretation and the nature of representation,” Assistant Curator Adelina Vlas said. “His thoughtful use of the camera lens engages both the perception and the imagination of the viewer.”
