Jim Kazanjian


  The Portland-based photographer Jim Kazanjian captivates viewers with the scenery in his pieces. Words from the artist " I am interested in a kind of ‘entropic’ image an image that has the capacity to de-familiarize itself. My current work is an attempt to unravel the photograph and play with established notions of time and space, notwithstanding our understanding of what gives things context. Through fragmentation and re-composition of the photographic space, the non-linear nature of reading the image is folded in on itself. The structure of the photograph is unwound and reshuffled. This reshaping is an iterative process that spurs a generation of something altogether different; something ineffable."
