Maslen & Mehra
Maslen and Mehras’ practice explores ideas that revolve around the meeting point and overlapping of nature and culture.
In their recent works, the artists have found themselves immersed in non-digital photographic techniques, in an age of digital photography and image manipulation. They create temporary interventions in natural and urban landscapes, which are then captured with a medium format camera. The final image suggests a place where we can have our cake and eat it too. A paradise where we strive to co-exist with the flora and fauna of our planet, and a place where we can live in our urban realities but somehow still remain connected to nature.
Maslen and Mehra are creating new site specific work for Margate Rocks 08.
