Photoforum Pasquart presents Claude Bühler and Samira Gollin as our FUTURES talents for 2024. These artists exemplify the dynamic interplay of multidisciplinary practices in contemporary photography, each unique in their narrative and mediums. They skillfully craft stories that resonate with communities and delve into the complexities of human experience in the digital era.
Bühler's artistic narrative trascends the traditional realms of art, merging her roles as artist, photographer and sound researcher. Emphasising the creative process over the final product, Bühler's approach to photography and music is both exploratory and deeply personal, involving intense research and engagement with the subject. Rooted in a desire to dismantle rigid structures her art transcends mere visual experience, becoming a catalyst for personal and sociatel change and inviting viewers to engage in a dialogue.
Gollin's work is characterised by a keen sensitivity to history and narrative layers, often involving meticulously collecting material - photographs, video, interviews, texts, objects - which she assembles into thought-provoking narratives. Her use of analogue techniques like scanning, printing, cutting and collaging creates multilayered works that are visually striking and content-rich. Her work invites viewers on a journey through time, exploring our shared history's mystical origins and reflecting on narrative power in shaping our world understanding.
