About the Item
“Cuckoo Clock” from my “Tech Vanitas” photography series, embraces our love for beautiful vintage design and anxiety over new technology. My still lifes clearly reference 17th Century Dutch vanitas paintings and their air of craft guilds, international trade, and luxury goods. At the same time, my carefully disheveled compositions of computer monitors, clocks, and phones allude to slick advertising imagery. Finally, these contemporary still lifes reflect our nostalgia for obsolete tech and yearning for the latest enchanted gadgets.
My colorful photographs appeal to a broad audience and look fabulous in living rooms, offices, and public spaces. The cuckoo clock, record player, and vintage phone bring back fond memories, or fuel one’s curiosity. The addition of contemporary devices, like portable hard drives, keeps the subject matter fresh and extends the appeal to younger viewers.
