Winner of the Grand Prix Images Vevey 2015/2016, Christian Patterson presents Gong Co., a long-form, monumental memento mori to the decline, death, and decay of a small grocery store in the heart of the Mississippi Delta. In this work, made over 20 years, Patterson finds a reflection on 20th century America and perceives “going out of business” as something personal and profound – an existential allegory relating to one’s own life and time.
