I saw this old notepad in a drawer and had this idea. made using the notepad, a blank sheet of copy paper, two spools of thread, tape and an exacto knife.
I was interested in the idea of a light bulb that continues to burn after it has been
destroyed. this was created from two photographs. I went through about 12 light bulbs to capture the light, sans-glass, and I learned a lot about how light bulbs work.
I had thought about making a series of the alphabet with each letter destroyed in some way. I kept imagining the A as being shredded. so I printed out the A and hand cut the strips with a exacto. I then photographed the A resulting in this image. the font is akzidenz-grotesk, one of my favorites.
