Exploring the intimate spaces of a single photogaph that was found at the thrift store recently, one which had clearly been cherished. I found the gunk on the frame interesting. I gave it a cursory cleaning and then realized I didn't want to fight the gunk remnant of the original price sticker, since this was left by the original owner. It drew a sort of picture, but a wrong picture. I could impute (emotionally laden) characteristics to this theoretical "picture owner." Or even physical characteristics could be hallucinated. They might struggle with age or a disability that made cleaning a picture frame a greater difficulty than it would be for most of us. The picture was a bad but charming photo. The picture held meaning for me because of you,
you who don't exist. You have invested me in you through this funny trance state which the mediums of yesteryear sought to induce (for moolah). Your dog party with its window that makes the whole thing look a bit like a movie set. A grungy movie set, but one deliberately so. The dogs seem very self-aware. There is a reverence, I remember seeing people venerating yesterday. As I was driving. I thought it was strange. To see people venerating. Half were in a courtyard and half were in a parking lot. Yes, they were old and most looked frail. I don't put any additional import upon such facts.
Rosemarie Trockel is a contemporary German Conceptual artist whose work challenges traditional notions of femininity, culture, and artistic production. Employing a wide range of materials, including video, ceramics, drawing, found artifacts, and knitted works, the artist raises questions of politics, domesticity, eroticism, and fantasy. “The minute something works, it ceases to be interesting,” she said of making art. “As soon as you have spelled something out, you should set it aside.” Born in Schwerte, Germany on November 13, 1952, she studied at the Werkkunstschule in Cologne, before going on to become one the first artists to show at Monika Sprüth gallery. Trockel first rose to prominence after exhibiting her celebrated Knitted Paintings (1985) series, which were created using machine-knitted fabrics stretched onto canvas supports. Throughout these woolen surfaces, Trockel depicts generic, computer-generated imagery or, in some cases, specific historic iconography, such as the Soviet worker with a sickle and hammer.
La misma historia de siempre es la que persigue, huyendo de ella pero siempre envuelve y absorbe. Es una costumbre la cotidianidad.
Cold heart makes good
Bright lines have deceit
One could make it solid
But I don’t give a damn
Hold out
Anyway I want it all

Scott is an English teacher in the United States of America. His prized possession is his typewriter. Shot with Fuji Provia 100, a Nikon N90s, a gold reflector and natural light. Location: The side of the 101 Freeway in Southern California; luckily we were almost finished before "Ponch and John" decided to break it up and send us on our way.

For this photo I obviously took a conceptual approach to reflection. One one hand, these two sculptures almost look like a literal reflection of one another. On the other hand, they're a reflection of the rich culture of our city.
