Over the break and over the last couple of weeks I have been experimenting with how to represent these ideas. My recent experiments explore this aging cycle by repeatedly printing images with a basic consumer-grade inkjet printer until the ink from the printer has completely been depleted. The image quality of the photographs progressively becomes poorer and poorer until the image “disappears.” After the image no longer printed I was interested in the processes of “renovating” or “gentrifying” by replacing the exhausted ink tanks with new ones, in an effort to be able to print the image again “as it should be seen.” In the same way that the aging and gentrifying processes have an effect on neighborhoods, I want to see the effect that continual inkjet printing has on images.
I am interested in what the ‘natural’ progression of inkjet printing without resupplying empty ink cartridges looks like, and what this says about the life trajectories and cycles of boys and buildings. Sourced images via screen-capturing my iPhone are fed through a consumer-grade inkjet printer, nuancing both appropriation and the creation of the “new” through the 21st-century lens of technology. The work also asks the viewer to reconsider the “ideal” within the gamut of degradation and revitalization. The resulting images aren't exactly what the inkjet printers are designed for- slick digital photographs. There is often a struggle between the printer and the original image, “as it should be printed,” - and the traces of this are left on the surface- clogged printer nozzles leave streaks resulting in imperfect images or “mis-prints.”
Water and fire, night and day, sun and moon, and Cancer and Leo. We met on Grindr, but don't judge us on that, back in Ocotber of 2012. Though it's only been about four months, it feels as though this relationship is built to last. Being that we are so different in a lot of aspects, we do tend to butt heads sometimes, but our differences allow to learn and grow from each other. I love him with all my heart, and I know he feels the same. Forever.

This is what happens when I run out of people to shoot - you get a pic of me looking sweaty! There's a hardly used sauna in my building which I've been using every night this week to see if it does anything for my rubbish immune system. For this shot I'm clothed from the waist down though - didn't want anyone coming in and thinking I was shooting my profile pic for Grindr! I've been trying to learn about matching the colour temperature of electrical lights with the light from a flash and got myself some coloured gels to try it out. Sauna=warm light, so balance with a warm gel... then after all that messing around I went with black and white for the final pic since colour was looking way too homosexual!
