Description |
|
| |
Iterations is a series of 96” x 24” panoramas of familiar built forms and their surrounding environments (including branded structures, street furniture, and suburban housing). Each panorama is comprised of seven or more photographs that are composited through transparency overlay. Thus, for example, Seven Essos, Toronto, consists of seven different Esso gas stations from around the city of Toronto superimposed on one another, creating a juxtaposition of the common and unique characteristics of each panoramic scene. Consistent elements reinforce each other through repetition such as the bright red canopy over the pumps, while inconsistencies, such as the surrounding environment or placement of columns, appear more ghost-like. The archetype of each architectural form emerges as a result of this accumulation of formal information.
