Ray Spence Artist Statement
Mannakin - The use of discarded mannequins are used as a metaphor for many of the current social events and the human condition in general. The images are created using a specially converted camera which is sensitive to infra red radiation, thus distancing concept from reality.
Momento mori - Momento Mori is a reminder of death. However death is not to be feared and beauty can still be found in those animals, plants and even inanimate objects that have come to the end of their useful lives. Using a process from 1851 known as wet plate collodion, Ray presents his still life creations as encased curiosities popular with Victorian society.
