The Uncertainty Principle

May 27th, 2008

In Tauba Auerbach’s works there is a recurring interest in the space between the sensical and non-sensical – in how meaning is translated through the help of fragile and frequently failing systems of signs and symbols. Language and logic both appear as porous (and potentially playful) in her works on paper, which have investigated such various elements of communication as semaphore, Morse, and binary programming language. In “The Uncertainty Principle”, Auerbach combines seven new drawings with five new photographs to address the constant diminishing presence of randomness – as a result of technology’s reductions and / or simulations of ‘the random’.
