Laura Pannack: Youth Without Age, Life Without Death: Chapter 1
6 June – 30 June

Youth Without Age, Life Without Death: Chapter 1’ is a response to the artist’s need to escape, adventure and roam in reaction to internal pressure. Pannack feels that time is moving too fast. It seems like a shared experience that hours, days and weeks pass and we can’t recall them, life continues and time slips away. Pannack’s adventure began in Romania. The strong sense of timelessness, tradition and untouched scenery mirrored her desire to stop time. This is a photographic exploration of the people, places and landscapes the artist encountered in Romania, drawing directly on the famous mythology and sense of a temporal place, offering a view on the fragility of life. In this work Pannack intentionally plays with the notion of fiction and the present moment, alternating between reality and fantasy, her photographs respond to a feeling of separation from the modern world.
