CANDELAR 2022: CANDEMAY
MAY FEATURE:
Tynan Byrne is a photographer and book artist in Quincy, Massachusetts. His bodies of work investigate the relationship between photography and language, magical realism, narrative documentation, and his own development as a queer individual. In his ongoing series, The Borogoves, he uses limitations of the polaroid to challenge the confines typically bound to the history of photographic landscapes and environments. Referencing the made-up words in Lewis Carol's The Jabberwocky, he strings together a project lacking concrete context to conjure a world imagined as tones, textures, and whimsy.
