Marina Faust: Autonomous Gestures Event

Opening
May 12, 2022
5-8 pm

Gianni Manhattan is pleased to announce the opening of Autonomous Gestures, Marina Faust’s second solo show at the gallery.

Marina Faust’s multi-faceted artistic practice utilises documentary photography, filmmaking, sculpture and collage to enter questions about identity, the self, subjectivity and alienation.

For Autonomous Gestures, Faust contrasts vintage photographic prints from the 1980s with her most recent series, large scale deconstructed chandeliers, which are restrained amongst a metal framework.

Marina Faust’s works often delineate from a classical understanding of photographic or painterly portraiture, opting instead for a psychological representation that is deeply rooted in dissonance, the contradictions of decision making or the fortitude of time.
