Reuben Wu: Aeroglyphs and Other Nocturnes
photo-eye Gallery is excited to announce "Aeroglyphs & Other Nocturnes," a solo exhibition of photography by Reuben Wu. Simultaneously reminiscent of the slick, neon glow of sci-fi aesthetics and the cryptic, symbolic language of ancient petroglyphs, Wu's work is clean, yet mysterious. His photography hovers somewhere between dream and memory, with an undulating sense of temporality slipping between ancient past and the imagined future. Light and land are entwined equally at the center of Wu's practice. By affixing lights to drones and using them to illuminate select parts of the landscapes he photographs, Wu draws precise geometric marks that hover in the air like beacons, harbingers, and signs. His work is concise, yet versatile in concept, offering new ways to approach the human relationship to nature, technology, and the overlay between past, present, and future.
"Aeroglyphs & Other Nocturnes" runs from August 30th to October 20th 2019
Opening reception Friday, August 30 from 5-7PM corresponding with the Last Friday Art Walk in the Railyard Arts District.
