The Color of Chance: Apparitions
 
The sequence entitled Apparitions confirms Tatge’s love of chance epiphanies, such as those one might intercept in the most disparate scenes of our visual experience. And also his ironic attention towards the emergence of the illogical in so much daily life. A non-aggressive irony employed to capture the most singular conglomerations, as in Junk Warehouse, where a Canovian Venus is found looking much like the sister of Pistoletto’s Venus in Rags. Or as in the Pink Bomb, hanging mid-air like a radical architect’s utopian vision. Or again in the billboard Banana that, with its alienating Pop extroversion, stands as the backdrop of an urban vegetable garden...
