The two pictures at the top form a diptych "Robot in Repose" and the collection to the left is a closer look into the shots used in the lower-right collage titled "Domes-tech". These pictures were the product of two to three months work making the robots (Bandai™ brand Gundam models) acquiring and creating furniture (a mix of Barbie™ and doll house furnishings) to create personalized environments for the photo shoot. The idea was to take these very masculine/war branded toys and give them new lives in a more domestic sphere. There is an inherent silliness in placing war machines in these compromising, human positions, and it was very fun to explore how it changed their intentions.
