Friday’s Feature Artist// David Welch
Posted by Krystie on May 20th, 2011
Very very interesting project concept by Artist/Photographer David Welch. This is how he describes it…
‘My work is a response to this contemporary consumer milieu. By treating artifacts of consumer culture as readymades, I create assemblages to form pseudo monuments, or totems, that serve as precarious externalizations of culture as social biography. The totems speak of accumulation and materiality and encourage debate about consumption, media, class, gender and the ways in which we feel compelled to consume.’
Apart from touching on a very important issue with his work, these photos are extremely pleasing to the eye. I am a big fan.
David has plenty more eye candy over on his website.
