Description
From dark humor to dark corners, the concept of ‘noir’ refers to a dark vulnerability palpable in the atmosphere of a scene that is experienced by the characters and felt by the viewer and speaks to pregnant moments full of complex emotions. A ‘noir’ presentation relies heavily on a viewer’s own vulnerabilities (fear, apprehension, curiosity with the macabre) to fill the mood of the scene based on cues given by the artist, as if both parties are complicit in leading each other down a path with an indeterminate, potentially unpleasant, outcome… Curator: Matt McKinley
