The Design

About Epic Fail 사진 시리즈는

2016년을 뒤흔든 정치적 사건에서 영감을 받은 이 시리즈는 소셜미디어와 뉴스피드 시대에 우리의 인식과 현실 사이의 부조화를 관찰합니다. 장 폴 사르트르(Jean Paul Sartre)의 『메스꺼움』의 실존적 흐름을 이용하여 우리의 물질성이 어떻게 우리의 의견과 판단에 의해 왜곡될 수 있는지 질문하는 것이 목표였습니다.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Inspired by the political events that shook 2016, this series observes the dissonance between our perception and reality in the age of social media and catered news feeds.

The aim was to question how our materiality can be warped by our opinions and judgements, using the existential currents of Jean Paul Sartre’s “Nausea”.
Dimensions & Packaging: Photography dimensions for all pictures are: 5457 x 3637 pixels
Tags: photography, surreal, hand made, colours, technology
Production Technology: wood, printed lycra, 3d printed plaster, high density foam, plexiglass.

With only slight retouching, all the effects were created in-camera using a mix of gravity defying rigs, 3d prints, and optical illusions that were tested and created in my workshop for 1 month.
Design Challenge: The challenge was finding ways to create multiple physical systems that could create a warped reality to be photographed. The upside down set with the computer screen spraying emoji's took two weeks of rebuilding until we could safely ask our model to lay down in it.
Inspiration: This project was born out of the shock election result of Brexit and Trump. The certitude I was harbouring of both votes not being possible, accompanied by their reality, had a ripple effect on how I perceived mine, inspiring me to create a series of physical moments that become warped by our judgment.

I wanted these moments to feel surreal but look palpable, so researching ways of shooting this series without doing any CGI was crucial.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2017 and finished in December 2017
