On-site and out-of-sight.
James Nesbitt
In a series of work that interrogates the meaning of street art, photographerAlex Larsen and sculptor Alex Dijulio make artwork involving scenes of urban decay across Baltimore without turning the places into the subject of ruin porn. Their process begins as guerrilla art, with the two of them selecting a space somewhere in the city. They find objects in that space and compose them into sculptures, with special sensitivity to the relationship between their interventions and the context of the place. The arrangement of these objects into sculptures is intended to strip them of the meaning associated with their function, letting them become purely aesthetic and compositional.
