mixed media digital collage
These images began as voyeuristic 2mp street photographs I shot with a Motorola Razr flip phone in the early 2000s.
luck, if such a thing exists, walks away on a thousand legs
full of raging hailstorm staccato
i saw it rising like vapor from the shadow of my life
hope, tempered by a rudimentary knowledge of particle physics
an unexpected funeral at which you don’t cry because you haven’t learned how
the heart returns in its own time, its own dimension
Fascinated by the low resolution, pixelated output of what was once a high-end technological device, I rephotographed the images on my computer monitor using the same and then newer phone cameras. Each image passed through various resolutions and distortions.
As each passage increased pixelization, skewed perspective, distorted colors, and blurred lines, the images seemed to evolve further from fact and closer to feeling.
Each flip phone image then found its connection to a technological and human heritage in images taken early in the last century, revealing the lines of emotional resonance that pass, however strangely, through time and technology.
