Artist's Statement:
glitch
noun
1. a defect or malfunction in a machine or plan.
2. Computers. any error, malfunction, or problem.
3. a brief or sudden interruption or surge in voltage in an electric circuit.
STORM is almost the antithesis of what we think of as photography, because the end result does not accurately depict what was viewed from the
other side of the lens.
Taken with an old BlackBerry Storm smartphone, these images were created from what appeared to be a corruption within the device's operating system. After attempting to take more photos and getting the same results, I frustratingly downloaded hundreds of files only to discover frenetic, vibrant, undulating images. The photographs represented are the last of 28 images that still exist today -- the remaining files having degraded to the point where there is no useful color information left.
Making a photograph is a painstaking process occasionally made easier with modern photo editing software. But despite our best efforts, sometimes technology just slips up and has its own way, and in this case an unexplainable computer glitch produced a surprisingly delightful result -- if only for
a fleeting moment.
From the gallerist:
I proudly exhibited Les Schmidt's award-winning photography at my New Orleans gallery for years. His work is in notable collections around the world and his exhibitions are always well received by collectors and the press alike. Over the coming months, I will be listing limited edition prints from his diverse portfolio.
(PLEASE NOTE: As with many photographic editions, prices rise as prints sell in each edition)
