Description
Work # 1029 is a series of experiments in which found objects, some insignificant, some loaded with the weight of history, meet a cheap tabletop scanner employed as a recording device. Because of the nature of the scanner’s extremely shallow depth of field, much of the image capture is out of focus. The objects in question – ranging from refrigerator magnets and knick knacks to a collection of outdated eyeglasses to cheap plaster or wooden knock-offs of famous sculptures – are enlarged many 100s of percent and floated against (mostly) black backgrounds. The results are often romantic, but just as often sinister. – Bruce Eves. July 23, 2020
