Artist Statement:
Justin Tyler Tate
Whether through
interaction that is forced by
an aggressive nature,
necessitated by proximity or
by physical contact, my work
extends out into the space
between the object and the
viewer. The viewer has to
adjust his or her posture to
fit the needs of the work.
This interaction with the
object results in an
introspective examination of
the body and the surrounding
space. Interaction between
the subject/object stimulates
an incentive for thorough and
strategic appraisal of the
work. I believe this critical
engagement is the most crucial
and unifying aspect of my
work. Between
self-examination and spatial
recognition a dialogue is
created. An analysis of use
and functionality is apparent
when the viewer is required or
denied interaction. This
give/take,
elevation/diminution of the
viewer/object relationship
leaves the work in a slippery
realm creating a myriad of
associations and possible
interpretations.
