This Is Love: Photography By Trautima



I came across David Trautima's work the other day and it reminded me of one of my favorite books, Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino. David is a Canadian artist who re-purposes household kitchen utensils by deconstructing and photographing them. He then manipulates the images by exaggerating their scale and digitally reassembling them. The results are modern architecture meets Star Wars to me. After seeing his prints, I think every kid in architecture school should be forced to play around with a vintage blender or mixer for at least a few weeks.

You can check out the rest of his work here. I find The Automobile Factory particularly interesting.
