Description
John Stezaker's Lost World presents a unique collection of collages and found-object sculptures that explore the relationship between convention and idiosyncrasy.
The artist's use of standardised images, including vintage film stills and antique postcards, creates a sense of familiarity and nostalgia. This is juxtaposed with Stezaker's own gestures and movements, captured in poignant found-object-sculptures featuring antique mannequin hands.
Lost World also includes a film, Crowd, which presents hundreds of frame-by-frame images of crowd scenes in a bewildering blur. The work accompanies a touring exhibition that has visited several major galleries in New Zealand, offering a unique insight into Stezaker's practice and artistic vision.
