After two years of an art moratorium, during which I only produced work privately, I will now post images of sculpture. The proximity syntax is stretching across the uncanny valley. Remember, we are not in the business, we are the business. On achète ton bonheur. Vole-le.
Advertisements use these shots of ‘mini experiments’ to illustrate the products effectiveness. For example, the scene in this ad where the tissue is moistened with a spray bottle and then dragged with a weight on it. They construct a sort of placeholder for the action that the tissue would normally be used for. There are others - pouring liquids onto pads, diapers, etc.
