By not including the presence of people in her photographs, these images show an abstract inspired side to Weir’s work – sensually capturing space, form, colour, and movement. Paintings do not follow the concepts of neither traditional photography nor traditional painting, and yet are creating an independent discipline that stands on the pillars of photographic composition. Paintings is a result of a three years-long ‘surface study’ practise, and more importantly, it is a visual representation of Weir’s search for a ‘pure’ image. “With each picture made according to a specific set of rules and criteria, Weir attempts to expunge herself from the act of image-making, and encounter photography as a immediate, indulging process,” Loose Joints explains.
