A Concept Is a Brick

Digital Images, 2016–2017

This series is an abstract on meaning and power. It is the product of an exchange between collective members, wherein each image was made, modified, and remade several times. The resulting images, hybrids that combine photography and 3D rendering, reveal a subject that can change its scope and effect depending on how it is produced and presented: A brick can be used to build a powerful structure, but it can also be used to bring one down.
