DANGER DE MORT

A new series of 3D stereographic prints by Bill Domonkos that combine altered, archive stereograph cards with 3D computer graphics.

Directed by Bill Domonkos with original music by Jill Tracy and Paul Mercer.

An intense juxtapose of disconnect and emotion. NERVOUS96 invokes the chiaroscuro spirit of a woman lonely, desperate, in debt, trying to connect in a desolate world overrun with technology. A seamless integration of film and music, NERVOUS96 casts a powerful spell, embodying the spirit of classic suspense and science fiction.

The Corinthian Maid (detail),  Joseph Wright 1782-1784  The National Gallery of Art Josiah Wedgwood, the pioneer of pottery manufacturing, commissioned this mythological scene that illustrates the invention of the art of modeling bas-relief sculpture. Wedgwood’s own fired-clay vessels, decorated with low reliefs, would have been seen by an eighteenth-century audience as the aesthetic descendants of this ancient Greek maiden’s attempt to preserve her beloved’s profile. The girl was the daughter of a potter in Corinth. Her boyfriend was about to embark on a perilous journey to foreign lands, taking only his spear and dog. As a memento, she traced her sleeping lover’s silhouette onto the wall. Her father then used the drawing to model a clay relief, which he baked in his kiln to create a ceramic keepsake.
