For COMMA, Brotherus is exhibiting a newly commissioned film of a solitary swimmer wading naked into, and breaking, the almost solid water surface of a slippery cold lake. A development of an earlier work, \u2018Black Bay Sequence\u2019 depicts the artist in a metaphorical immersion in which she looses herself to the landscape. This piece is presented alongside \u2018Time Series IV\u2019 exhibited in its entirety for the first time at Bloomberg SPACE. The series of 100 self portraits, taken each day, documents the physical effects on the artist of strong medication. Brotherus fell ill and was thrown into a different relation between her working practice and the necessity to stay home. The new photographic series, installed along the balcony in the rear gallery, shows a progression of her slowly changing features as the medication blurs the edge and blunts the lines of her face. Both works show Brotherus physically and emotionally naked. By presenting herself to the viewer as the subject she simultaneously looses herself in terms of meaning or presence.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;961&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;963&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;962&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;964&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;965&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;966&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;967&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;968&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; img_link_to_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_link_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_separator][vc_column_text]<strong>About COMMA:<\/strong> Launched in March 2009, COMMA is a dynamic new series of commissions enabling artists to experiment and expand their practice in relation to Bloomberg SPACE and its communities.
