David GoldesThe Future in the Present2012
2012
About the Item
Goldes’ photographic still lifes are inspired by two 19th century publications that were aimed at stimulating the scientific minds of children—Michael Faraday’s 1861 classic, The Chemical History of the Candle, and C.V. Boys’ 1889 Soap Bubbles and the Forces that Mold Them. Using these texts as a starting point, Goldes reenacts and interprets the historical experiments with particular sensitivity to the fragility and ephemerality of the materials involved. His modern versions are constructed from simple everyday household articles such as burning candles, string, soap bubbles, water, and wax paper.
