Free Radicals

Free Radicals

Free Radicals are a series of photomontages that were partially made from images of some of my sculptures and architectural models, along with various geometric graphic elements.

Photographs were taken of some of my sculptures and architectural model with a digital camera. Those images were placed into my computer and isolated from their original backgrounds. In most cases the isolated images were then manipulated in various ways with my computer. Usually the original images of my sculptures and architectural models were manipulated in Photoshop with a warping tool. Those warped images allow with others that were not manipulated, and/or manipulated images of other things such as people and landscapes, were placed together with various geometric graphic elements into the finale photomontages.

The hope was to created totally unexpected and never before seen montages that would inspire the viewers to create stories in their minds about what these images mean, and where their inspiration came from.
