Edgar Martins : The Time Machine
21 Sep-5 Nov 2011
The Wapping Project - Bankside
London SE1 9LR
Overview
The Time Machine is a body of previously unseen works, shot across Portugal between 2010 and 2011. Structured as a topographic survey of hydropower plants, built between the 1950's and 1970's, the work recovers a past of exciting technological innovation and optimistic belief in the future. It records spaces and objects that characterise a suspended time, that of the modern: machines and rooms which simultaneously place us in genuine science-fiction settings and in an unavoidable field of nostalgia.
