Maerz Galerie is pleased to present Vestiges of Memory, a solo exhibition by Canadian artist, James Nizam. Nizam’s photo-sculptural works illuminate specific architectural details, imbuing these elements with a phantasmal luminosity. The image incites the viewer to consider the relation of memory and place, aesthetically investigating how our subjectivities linger with sites and objects, remaining as a ghostlike trace. In this sense, Nizam’s structural fixtures are equally grounded and tenuous, visualising how ephemeral temporality vividly contrasts with the stasis of geographic locale.
