DONE
Thirty-first series: Little Monsters II, ed. five series of 50 each.
You know those great 19th and early 20th century Romanesque and Gothic architectural ornaments of faces and gargoyles you see on the buildings all over New York, Paris, London, Rome, Venice, Athens? Love them!! I have been known to climb up to the upper stories of nearby buildings just to get a look. So I shot a selection of these images and made them all into more little monsters. I mounted their images on the front of little clear 2 x 1 x 1 inch 2 x 2 x 1 inch boxes, darkening the backgrounds with gaffer tape and lighting them all up with LEDs. Then I filled them up with silver balls or clear beads to reflect the light and rattle wonderfully. (If you find one of these works and want to reserve the light, open them up and reinsert the tab.) I will be placing these works all through the summer in New York city.
Did you see one? Tell me!
