Somewhere between the speed of light and the click of a shutter exists a dance of gesture, improvisation and experimentation where physics meets the soul. The artists in Structures of Time each approach the capture of light at night in different and unique ways. From the hyper drive techno psychedelia of Laser Lew Dude’s staged laser closet installation photography to Kara Murphy’s long exposures from drones 1000 ft above the earth, this exhibition observes various ways that contemporary artists approach the capture of time in a still object. Some artists are using drones for light painting, some are using various illumination devices to create unique strobe effects and others are simply using the natural light of the city or landscape to capture the cosmic ephemerality of life at night.

Featuring Artwork by: Luis Cruz, Jaime Del Pizzo, Laser Lew Dude, Kara E Murphy, Linda Loh, Kitagawa, Sketchlight, Ricardo Takamura, Nikolay Trebukhin, Zigamarillion.

Syntax Projects was founded in New York City by Justin Wood and Erica Ensminger in 2019 to develop innovative art programming with a focus on experiential and digital art. The first gallery space was located at 1424 Lexington Ave. in Manhattan where they presented 3 exhibitions before the program went nomadic. The next exhibitions and events were held with Wallplay at the South Street Seaport in lower Manhattan. The next phase of Syntax programming will take place in the Metaverse. Launching on iOS, Android, WebGL, and Oculus in the spring on 2022.
