Henrik Oleson: R.R.
‘A bestiary of agencies, kinds of relatings, and scores of time.‘ Henrik Olesen’s ‘R.R.’ originates in his reading of Donna Haraway’s ‘The Companion Species Manifesto.’ Through her, Olesen reimagines Robert Rauschenberg’s ‘Monogram’ using found images of interspecies attachments overlaid with painterly gestures that are both childish and fevered.
Printed on a lightweight, soft, ink-absorbing paper stock, these images are then partially overlaid with hand collaged glossy tip-ins. The resulting publication, a cobbling together of non-harmonious agencies, is both rigid and soft, out of focus and sharp, tender and frenzied.
