The three series, titled Time, Wall Calendar and Snowman, each question that which we most take for granted.In the 'Time' series, person-size silkscreened mirrors bearing the red border and logo of the 100-year-old magazine, pair a precise historical moment with the viewer’s own reflection in the present. The 'Wall Calendar' series displays commercial calendar images as if held up to the sun, allowing the reverse side of the page to show through. Printed on both sides of the fabric and stretched over a light box, recto and verso are collaged together with light – the calendar grid of a single month is superimposed onto a photograph of a 40-million-year-old mountain. The 'Snowman' series consists of trompe-l’oeil stacks of Amazon boxes and other online retail shipping cartons cast in sturdy patinated bronze.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9783037645758.
