New photo-based work from the Instagram famous Loyola_Condenser.
The immutability of the condenser is in direct contrast with the ever-changing surrounding environment. Like a silent sentinel, the condenser bears witness to the world day and night, and without judgement. Both ridiculous and sublime, the images in @loyola_condenser bring to mind the romantic oil paintings of J.M.W Turner and the photographic seascapes of Hiroshi Sugimoto, as mixed through the lens of cell phone capture, Instagram and the barrage of image creation that fuels social media.
