À propos du créateur
Lost And Found In the mid-90's I began photographing surfaces as a way to compile visual research for my work in scenic design and painting. My exploration into the history of advertising through sign painting revealed terms like: Wall Dogs, Ghost Sign & palimpsest which means, a very old document on which the original writing has been erased and replaced with new writing, something that has changed over time and shows evidence of that change. I became fascinated with this visual phenomenon and it became my primary photography subject. My photographs cover a range from the earliest painted advertisements to newest painted murals and as I continue the hunt, the collection of photos grows every year. Lost and Found is not only about finding lost sign treasure, but it is also about honoring a diminishing art-form and supporting it’s rejuvenation. They are life journals of American culture through advertising.
