Roger Ballen & Andrew Luk: Zodiak at Boogie Boogie Photography

I love seeing artists responding to other artists’ work but without too much direct homage and citation. Staying true to his explorative practice and playing around with themes of man-made and natural, adding historical and societal references, Andrew managed to create works that rhyme with the sarcastic and observant photographs by Roger Ballen. Twelve photoworks, twelve zodiacal animals—a direct reference to astronomical observance—are in dialogue with The Refrigerator of Curious Cosmologies, that contains navigational and time sensing devices.
As for the meaning behind captivated fake durians—I’ll leave it for you to discover.
