EXHIBITION
Janelle Lynch: Los Jardines de M�xico
November 29, 2011 - January 28, 2012
Janelle Lynch, Charles, from the series Akna.
The photographs in Los Jardines de M�xico explore themes related to the life cycle and its representations in the urban and rural landscape. Made between 2002 and 2007, each project investigates, if not embraces, a specific facet of existence: loss, death, regeneration, and life.
The exhibition is comprised of four series: El Jard�n de Juegos, highlighting the relics of a children's playground conquered by nature and neglect; Donde Andaba, focusing on wild plants that grow out of the urban infrastructure and architecture; Akna (the Mayan goddess of birth and fertility or "mother" in Mayan), delving deep into a nature preserve to anthropomorphize dormant tree stumps serving as hosts of new life; and La Fosa Com�n, beautifully featuring the vegetation in a century-old common grave at different stages of the life cycle. The combination of these four bodies of work, three from Mexico City and one from Chiapas, examines the persistence of life.
