PHOTO CONSTRUCTIONS

Martin Venezky

This body of work began as a series of large photographic installations in my office and then in gallery spaces. The process begins with a selection of simple salvaged materials, constructions and drawings photographed in my studio. The resulting prints are hand-collaged together and tacked to a board. From there, the assembly is recreated from the original digital files. Crossing media, from sculpture to collage to photography to digital work is an important interest of mine.
