Being. Neither here nor there.

Reception July 29, 2022 during ARTcrawl
In Grahame Lynch’s recent body of photographic work, “Being. Neither here nor there,” images that have been shot on trains, subways, buses and in airports gesture toward themes of immediacy, delay and agitation. Collectively this body of work represents gaps in time that are chaotic, fragmented and isolating, while they coalesce in frenetic compositions of shifting locations and people. The photographic processes exploit technological glitches that occur as a result of speed and motion and the work has been subjected to digital, mechanical and chemical interventions. The resulting images depart from photographic traditions that have a single frame of reference, often appearing spatially compressed and optically imprecise.
