Reinterpretations of Human Character. 2015. Databending Glitch Images.
This series of glitch sketches was born out of my intial reserach during SAIC's 150th year celebration. Assigned the year 1896, I combed through publications produced by the Art Institute of Chicago from that year until I found a book titled "Portraits and Picutres." This turned an exhibition book containing works by August Franzen.
Knowing I had wanted to work with my glitch technique, I chose of Franzen's works from the "Interpretations of Human Character" series to manipulate, but after being unable to find images of those works online, I settled for picking any image I found on Google after searching the titles of Franzen's pieces.
Though ulimately, I took my project in a different direction with Skyview, I ended up coming back to the initial idea of finding my muse in books and glitches in Missteps and Misprints.
