"In my work, I’m identifying very mundane shapes and ridiculous things as monuments,
not to downplay the importance of existing monuments, just that when you visit a monument you have your own meaning and understanding, you only take a very small part away with you. The person or event that it represents is far too large and infinite to take away the complete meaning. And often monuments are visited in short spans of time—
drive six hours, get out look, back into the car type of thing.
Art is viewed in a similar way—minus the drive. My monuments are void of meaning.
I don’t know if there’s a way that could be somewhat political. "
-Brion Nuda Rosch
Brion Nuda Rosch’s works—consisting of collages, paintings, installations, social projects and video—are inviting yet unpredictable.
Through basic maskings, removals, and additions, he plumbs the profundity of placing one idea upon another, producing results not unlike a warm, soft chuckle. Rosch’s works function as signposts and touchstones of his own investigation into his singular understanding of the world.
"My monuments are void of meaning.
I don’t know if there’s a way that could be somewhat political."
