Trans
Americana
'
98
is
a
collaborati[on]
with
Tobias
Deeg
as
TwoD
Press
.
We
were
traveling
across
country
,
separate
from
each
other
, but
sometimes
to the
same
destinations
.
Both
of us were
documenting
the
journey
in
photographs
,
being
like
an
old
explorer
of the
scientific
age
as
we
were
discovering
images
,
rescuing
them from
being
forgotten
.
Using
collage
techniques
to
depict
the
shock
of the
known
meeting
the
unknown
, the
images
of
Trans
Americana
'
98
are
derived
closely
from the
original
objects
depicted
,
mostly
photographs
of
typical
American
forms
,
buildings
, and
everyday
objects
,
scanned
in and
transformed
through
the
computer."--Artist's
