In Awe
A thematic selection of photographs by Henri Senders We live in an age of vision. Among our senses, sight has become the most stimulated of the five. And yet, such overwhelming stimulation is gradually changing our perception to the point of making Us question or reformulate what the act of seeing really is. Shocking, amusing, seducing images Are projected before us every second through analogical and digital surfaces. ! Eyes move rapidly and narrowly around the small surface of a screen, guided by our fingers in What becomes an almost tactile vision. What we see is often framed, distorted, or filtered by Artificial constructs. ! The more we see, the more it becomes difficult to to be surprised, and seldom if ever are we Moved or frightened by the sight of natural or manmade wonders. Today we try to explore how this feeling can be evoked by art, through different media. We ask our Artists to close their eyes, wait, and then open them wide again to awaken a sense dulled by the Excesses of image consumption. We ask our audience to behold and witness for themselves if this Dormant, ancestral emotion is still present and alive.
