Chris Duncan employs repetition and accumulation as a basis for experiments in visual and sound-based media. Often instrumentalizing unconventional art making tools such as mirrors, string, light, and shadow, Duncan creates moments that at once challenge, overwhelm, and awe viewers. Time's physical and psychological effects have become paramount in the artist’s experimental endeavors. Relying on the passing of time and long term effects of ultraviolet light exposure, the artist exposes manufactured colored fabrics to the sun so that imagery emerges on the fabrics without the use of any chemical processes. An homage to the power of the sun, these process-oriented works also blur the distinction between painting and photography. In consideration of society at large’s reliance on the immediacy of technology, the concept of time takes precedence in Duncan’s practice; his work is made by honoring the passing of time, not the acceleration of it.
