About the Item

Aviation Old Tom Gin 2864, limited edition color photograph, signed and numbered. Focusing on subjects grand and mundane, Ernie Button takes color photographs of cities and sights on his travels worldwide. He captures amusement parks, plastic toys, the residue of whiskey left behind in glasses, and breakfast cereal arranged into landscape scenes. Acknowledging the wide range of his portfolio, he explains: “Although my subject matter varies, my images focus on the individual nature of objects (and occasionally people) and the unique qualities that each possesses. My images often provide a voice to objects that are ignored and are frequently overlooked or taken for granted.” When shooting outside of the studio, Button often works with a film-based Holga, the low-cost camera developed in the 1980s and known for producing slightly blurred and distorted images. In the studio, Button uses higher resolution cameras to reveal the strange, surreal beauty in close-up views of ordinary materials.

  • Planet Glenfiddich 125, limited edition color photograph, signed and numbered
    By Ernie Button
    Located in Sante Fe, NM
    Planet Glenfiddich 125, limited edition color photograph, signed and numbered. Whisky is a time-honored drink, finely crafted and enjoyed for centuries. I feel fortunate that I found the Vanishing Spirits phenomenon. I am a fan of observing my world and the things that are happening around me; noticing the smaller details that may be ignored or overlooked. The idea for this project occurred while putting a used Scotch glass into the dishwasher. I noted a film on the bottom of a glass and when I inspected closer, I noted these fine, lacy lines filling the bottom. What I found through some experimentation is that these patterns and images that are seen can be created with the small amount of Single-Malt Scotch whisky left in a glass after most of it has been consumed. The alcohol dries and leaves the sediment in various patterns. It’s a little like snowflakes in that every time the Scotch dries, the glass yields slightly different patterns and results. Some of the images reference the celestial as if the image was taken of space; something that the Hubble telescope...
