Admir Batlak: Pose for Scale
贰苍迟谤茅别 is proud to present a solo exhibition with Admir Batlak, coinciding with the annual Bergen International Festival. The exhibition features a new large-scale piece that continues Batlak鈥檚 investigation of textiles as both medium and message.
Inspired by Yugoslav monuments, Batlak merges imagery from his birthplace Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, with scenes from his current surroundings. The resulting digital landscape鈥攁ltered, patched, and created through touchscreen鈥攊nvites reflection on monumentality and materiality. Printed directly onto wadding, he creates a "digital quilt" composed of abstracted motifs. Typically a hidden mid-layer in quilts, the porous texture of the wadding is further animated by ink that bleeds into the surface, softening boundaries and blurring lines.
