Published in conjunction with the exhibition...organized by the Vancouver Art Gallery, curated by Grant Arnold and presented from June 11 to October 30, 2016.
Summary:
Over the past two decades, Stephen Waddell (born Vancouver, 1968; lives and works in Vancouver) has become widely known for his large-scale color photographs that depict the human figure in urban space. 'The Dark Matter Atlas' presents a body of recent photographs in which the artist has departed dramatically from the subject matter of his earlier work. Here he instead focuses on caverns in the United States, Canada, and Lebanon, spaces once difficult to access that are now underground public parks.
