CORRUPTED
2022
Digital Glass Plate Works

Info
The Corrupted series examines the impermanence of knowledge, highlighting the loss of knowledge and tradition caused by time, obsolescence, and violence. The works in this series started out as 4x5 glass plate negatives which were then smashed using a hammer and nail before being scanned onto a computer as a jpg file with the code being manually corrupted line by line inviting viewers to consider the impact of erasure and suppression on our collective history.
