Bryan Grafʼs works explore the tensions between control and chance. This work is from Prismatic Tracks, a series produced as unique, camera-less photograms, a process by which the artist can exert certain constraints while purposefully leaving other elements beyond his control. Throughout the body of work, Graf employs mesh as a metaphor for structure, order, and systems, and light as a variable element. Large areas of deeply saturated color highlight every fold of translucent mesh, splayed in all directions of disorienting spatial depths, occasionally blurring into a brilliant foregrounded white, where multiple filtered exposures have come together. The performative action of filtering light illuminates the artistʼs gesture, such that forms within each of the scroll-like compositions reappear or are subtly reiterated.
