Pacifico Silano : the eyelid has its storms ... by Silano, Pacifico,1986-photographer.(CARDINAL)855865; Lavalette, Shane,1987-writer of introduction.(CARDINAL)783613; Light Work (Organization : Syracuse, N.Y.),organizer,host institution,publisher.(CARDINAL)188261; Robert B.

"Pacifico Silano's The Eyelid Has Its Storms ... borrows its title from a Frank O'Hara poem. O'Hara's musings and observations about everyday queer life inspired Silano's artistic practice. 'The eyelid has its storms, ' the poem begins. 'There is the opaque fish-scale green of it after swimming in the sea and then suddenly wrenching violence, strangled lashed, and a barbed wire of sand falls onto the shore.' O'Hara's deeply visual poem, like Silano's work, evokes duality--in memory, in the present, and future, shimmering beauty and umbral violence often occur at once. Through the appropriation of photographs from vintage gay pornography magazines, Silano creates colorful collages that explore print culture and the histories of the LGBTQ+ community. His large-scale works evoke strength and sexuality while acknowledging the underlying repression and trauma that marginalized individuals experience. Born at the height of the AIDS epidemic, Silano lost his uncle due to complications from HIV. 'After he died, ' says Silano, 'his memory was erased by my family due to the shame of his sexuality and the stigma of HIV/AIDS around that time period.' Silano set out to create art that reconciled that loss and erasure. Silano's exhibition somberly contemplates such pain and photography's role in the struggle for queer visibility, while celebrating enduring love, compassion, and community. In collaging, Silano decisively fragments, obscures, and layers images that he has rephotographed from these magazines. He reassembles and ultimately recontextualizes these images, removing the overtly explicit original content. 'These new pictures-within-pictures are silent witnesses that allude to absence and presence, ' says Silano. He sees them as stand-in memorials, both for the now-missing models as well as those who originally consumed their images. Silano meditates on the meaning of the images and tearsheets that he collects over time. What continually excites him is precisely the 'slipperiness' of representation and meaning in photography as our culture shifts. 'The lens that we read [images] through today gives them new context and meaning, ' he observes. 'In another 30 or 40 years, they might very well mean something completely different'"--Light Work description online at source URL: https://www.lightwork.org/archive/pacifico-silano-the-eyelid-has-its-storms
