Tony Oursler - Glare Schematics - Albert Baronian - Brussels

through January 11th 2014

Encompassing the notion of identity analysis made physical in poetic multimedia schematics, these works explore the idea of making visible private psychoanalytical and genealogical maps embodied in icons of one’s past and present. Oursler suggests an interlocking chain of influences as mnemonic images ranging from body parts, masks, stock mythological characters, serpents, demons, family portraits, abstract lights and celestial bodies are all connected via metallic vectors which define the associative links. Oursler asks, “who are we at any given moment, and how did we become what we are?”
