Mark Misic’s photographic work is concerned with the intersection of the physical human experience and universal phenomenology. His work explores the strange couplings, flows and alliances that occur when our internal systems of self-governance and human physicality morph with the landscape.
Scene & Seen presents a group of large tessellated black and white portraits that capture the moment by moment actions of people engaged in familiar and curious acts of everyday life. In these works, Misic transforms the clinical mechanical stop action approach of pre-film photography of Eadweard Muybridge by applying an intuitive sensibility. This insightful use of repetitive elements, allows repetition to be both mundane and illusory, inviting a consideration of ‘what is being seen in these scenes?’
