Comprised of 8 pieces on view at Station and 3001 Gallery, Greg Wilken pays homage to a machine that has occupied a unique place in photographic history—the drum scanner. As its name implies, the film is mounted on to the surface of a clear acrylic drum, which is then spun around a narrow beam of light and an optical pick up. Using attributes unique to the drum scanner, Wilken plays up the loss of the hand in photography by showing fingerprints in the clear tape used to mount images to the drum. The machines scanning ability is used to reveal that which was generally hidden and has now become almost completely absent, the labor of the operator. On the other hand, unique qualities of the machine are used to playful effect. Some images wrap around from top to bottom, highlighting their scanned lineage from a drum.
Wilken explores issues of liminality and tactility in this new work by not only highlighting but also creatively utilizing an intermediate stage of photographic production normally regarding as a means-to-an-end tool.
