Outer Space

the garden of forking paths expands the experience of public space and memory into one that is rendered through an uncanny topology of abstract geometries.  A place of inquiry and mystery – the work unearths the shrouded and subtle intimacies of queerness hidden within a public space historically explored as cruising grounds.

Jarrod Van Der Ryken is a multidisciplinary artist who works primarily in the mediums of photography, video, and sculptural. His experimental practice often culminates in immersive video installation. Through experimentation with time and space, his work investigates themes of identity, representation, and the complexities of queer experience. The immersive experience of his work allows the viewer to relate to personal and collective emotion and memory, and to forge connections to different communities.

Jarrod completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Visual Arts) at the Queensland University of Technology and has presented solo exhibitions at Wreckers Upstairs, Boxcopy Contemporary Art Space, Metro Arts and Outer Space in Brisbane, Firstdraft and Galerie Pompom in Sydney, and Screenspace in Melbourne.
