\nSnapshot<\/em> was a solo exhibition of a new work commissioned for Bloomberg SPACE by 1997 Turner Prize winning, London-based artist Gillian Wearing.<\/p>\n

Shown on a single free standing wall Snapshot (2005) appeared as a huge moving photographic album. For the piece Wearing focused on the subject of loneliness. From a girl playing the violin to an elderly woman in a residential home, seven individual screens showed scenes in the lives of seven different women, each set in a different decade of the 20th century and all at a different stage of their lives. Each film, informed by old photographs, was accompanied by a single spoken monologue reflecting one person\u2019s life. The images remained distinct and separate as representations of innocence, aspiration, self image and resignation.<\/p>\n

Wearing\u2019s work uses photography and video to explore the intimacies and complexities of everyday life. Her work borrows from familiar forms of popular culture to explore deep-seated human trauma and emotion, often adopting methods similar to television documentary for her \u2018fly-on-the-wall\u2019 view of people\u2019s lives. Her art can be disturbing and confessional, an honest portrait of the many sides of contemporary life.<\/p>\n
