Episode Synopsis

Kuhn reimagines a love relationship referenced in the extensive Schindler archives to create a dreamscape of portraiture, still life and landscape of an unnamed protagonist dwelling within the home and courtyard of Schindlers iconic Kings Road house. Solarization offered the perfect photographic tool for Kuhn to cross time and space while honoring the process of the Surrealists which was innovated at the time the house was built. Schindler and Kuhn both see and celebrate moments when light is its own architecture. In this conversation, Mona Kuhn discusses, among other things:Images as semanticsSensory inspirationEmbracing the unknownBringing architecture to lightThe courage to be yourselfLearning to walk againCreating visual poetryReaching critical massEditing to bbe true to your storyNew ways of exhibitingWunder!Referenced in the episodeMona Kuhn Kings Road installation shots Time and Space - Steidl Interview with Mona Kuhn MAK center of Art and Architecture 835 Kings Road at AD&A at UC Santa Barbara The Gift - Lewis HydeThe Age of Light - Whitney ScharerUNESCO World Heritage Site” Hollyhock HouseCapture Photo Festival in Vancouver Website | InstagramEngage with J.
