Microscope is very pleased to welcome Joseph Moore and Josh Sender to the gallery for a screening evening of works as part of our emerging artist series YES. The program features works entirely made using the tools and content offered by the internet.
Joseph Moore’s videos in the program are composed from 24-hour screen captures from unsecured webcam feeds. The content includes among others giraffes, pandas, pendulums, public squares, private homes and other predetermined subjects shot via static, time lapse shots transforming mundane occurrences into voyeuristic studies of movement and behavior.
In Josh Sender’s works the mouse cursor scrolls and clicks through constantly rearranged pages containing open source 3D-scanned objects borrowed from major institutions, as well as randomly layered digital paintings, distorted empty art gallery spaces, and photographs generated by picking fragments from the first listed images on a Wikipedia listing.
Both Moore and Sender will be in attendance and available for a Q&A following the screening.
general admission $8
students w/ ID & Members $6
