The Interval Separating

September 12, 2008-November 1, 2008

The Interval Separating features work by artist, Caleb Larsen. The exhibition utilizes logic-based systems to explore the intersection and divide between digital and physical space.

Larsen approaches this topic obliquely through employment of installation, print, electronics, sculpture and multimedia. His work leverages the effects of language and mapping to translate life, media, and culture into transmedia experience. It is through distortion, reduction, and manipulation that Larsen is able to navigate this space. The diversity, interest and research reflected in his artwork seemingly make Larsen, as much engineer, geographer, or anthropologist as he is an artist.

“The wild toolbox of Caleb Larsen’s activities reveals a spirit much like that of an explorer looking for the unknown. … By extracting information from found sources, whether art, movies, or the web, Larsen is clueing us in to other things we should be noticing and be ready for.” – Ian Berry

Larsen’s recent work has been exhibited at the Peacock Visual Arts in Scotland, Los Angeles Center for Digital Art, Detroit International Video Festival, Flux Factory in New York, 911 Media Arts Center in Seattle, and Tjaden Gallery at Cornell University. The artist lives and works in Seattle and Rhode Island.
