Canal Street, New York City 2014
"Founded in 2007, Tumblr has evolved into a significant creative online platform, exemplifying remix culture by creating influential arbiters, both professional and amateur, and attracting legions of followers. Presenting Brendan Lynch + Naomi Larbi, the fifth iteration of +1 #5 features a life-size cast of Larbi, paired with a constellation of images from her Tumblr (leftovershrooms.tumblr.com), all selected by Lynch. Turning the viral into the physical, this exhibition competes with the sheer immediacy and speed of its medium, creating an already out-of-date image of an online persona."
