The Giver, provides its audience an encounter with photography in its most immediate form, inscribed only by light, time, and chemistry. The work celebrates the medium’s capacity to be self-reflexive and prioritise its own object over those accumulated by the world around it.
Aidan Gageler lives and works between Awabakal & Yuin Land (Lake Macquarie/South Coast, NSW). He graduated from Camberwell College of the Arts, UAL (London, UK) with first-class honours. His practice thinks through photography’s receptibility, both to light and to sentiment. His works open up the possibility of being felt or experienced, affordances offered commonly to music but rarely visual art.
