Florian Clewe, Berlin/Germany — Time-based Media, Solitude fellow 2015–2017

Florian Clewe fails at being a painter. Hence, he mainly works with photography, moving images and objects (which is a good thing, as he considers twists and awkwardness as material for and expansions of his practice). Passing through diverse realms of culture and knowledge, Florian Clewe’s works carry peculiar modes of presentification and perception: of living, technical, epistemological and mental objects and images and their apparent relations and differences. Thereby, they play on the tensions arising from the migration of the adopted objects, images, practices and problems into artistic forms and gestures.

Remediations of a Sensual Universe

»Remediations of a sensual universe« forms the starting point for a shared approach towards imaginative and pictorial modes of thinking. Trying to take account for the radical openness and originality of images, for their preobjectal sensibility and the psycho-social arrangements that allows them to come into being, Florian Clewe and Leon Filter are keeping the subject oscillating between their two artistic positions, working parallel to each other and trying to make ends meet.
