David Trautrimas is again set to baffle spectators with his photography of abandoned household items. Finely tuned to epic structures, his Habitat Machines are a scrupulous display of assorted recyclart. Arranging bits and pieces of derelict household items, the Canadian artist captures the best of them. If you want to witness his photo-based architecture in full glory, the Photo-Eye Gallery Exhibition in Santa-Fe, New Mexico, offers you the best chance to do so until September 12.
How often do you see items like coffee pots, electric razors or oilcans meeting an enviable fate in the hands of a master recycler? David purchases outmoded objects from eBay, thrift stores and flea markets and transforms them into a futuristic, treasured fine art. Aside from a mere artistic rendition, one could discover the essential modernization of non-moralizing structures. In fact, his artwork is a live documentary on our environmental progress and decline.
