Brendan George Ko: We Soon Be Nigh
In a time of cinematic Armageddon, endless documents of natural disasters and environmental shifts, and ancient wisdom foretelling the Apocalypse, belief is not a necessary vehicle into an impending sense of doom. The future has always been uncertain, but particular recent events — from rapidly rising sea levels to a continual “war on terror” — have shifted this feeling into the foreground. The notion of a precarious future seems omnipresent. It has moved beyond imagination and manifested itself in the photographic medium.
Brendan George Ko investigates recent history and popular culture to find icons that represent a pessimistic view toward the future. Ko represents these icons in his photographs of outsiders, catastrophes, and future landscapes, which are accompanied by anecdotal didactic panels. Also on view: a video piece that strings together clips from 12 Hollywood disaster movies into one seamless film, a video installation complete with special effects, and a sonic landscape that fills the gallery environment with foreshadowing overtones.
We Soon Be Nigh! attempts to capture the fleeting atmosphere that surrounds apocalyptic prophesies from both the past and the future. This atmosphere has existed in different forms and narrative
