Jeanette May“Still Life with Answering Machine” Vintage Tech Photograph for Bird Watchers2021
2021
About the Item
“Still Life with Answering Machine” appeared in Audubon Magazine, Winter 2021 issue. This bird watching still life continues the exploration of vintage tech begun in my “Tech Vanitas” series. Surrounded by rich silks and patterned wallpapers, playful still lifes of familiar devices suggest 17th Century Dutch paintings. My photographs display a fascination with dated merchandise, industrial design, and scientific ingenuity. The gadgets in this photograph reflect the technology used by 20th Century bird watchers, including an answering machine for rare bird alert systems, binoculars, camera, and Audubon books. What becomes of the beloved tech that stops working or becomes obsolete? My still lifes examine the present and the past of technology without easy answers but rather with a sense of wonder and trepidation.

- Persephone III - large format photograph of a timeless environmental stillBy Erik PawassarLocated in San Francisco, CAlarge scale original photograph from the body of works 'Persephone', a series of environmental still-life photographs of timeless palimpsest impressions Persephone III by Erik Pawassar 40 x 31 inches (102 x 79cm) signed edition of 25 62 x 48 inches (157 x 122cm) signed edition of 7 archival fine art pigment print signed & numbered by artist on label custom/larger sizes are available on request ____________________________ Erik Pawassar's work focuses on the beauty of the disregarded or mundane object. The subjects for his striking and captivating visuals are typically set in the most ordinary environments, drawing the viewer into a charged but serene experience based on composition, palette and formal lines. Saturated in color, the nominal subjects gather a haunting and mesmerizing quality, creating a poignant pretext for the making of a formal color photograph. Decisively capturing the traces left by humanity, Pawassar's images are filled with a sense of universal nostalgia and pay homage to the passage of time and the extinguished moment, referencing documentary and street photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Sebastian Salgado...Category
