Internet Soul Portraits (I.S.P)

inception: 2005

Description

Internet Soul Portraits (I.S.P.) are a tongue-in-cheek treatment of web design as pure representation. In this project, familiar images are altered by the application of essentialist, reductive approaches from a painterly tradition. The images are derived from the homepages of some of the most popular sites on the web: Yahoo, Google, MSN, Amazon, CNN, eBay, The Weather Channel, MapQuest, Best Buy, and MySpace.
