A Grocer’s Orgy // Lucas Blalock

PHROOM magazine // international research platform and contemporary fine art photography and video art magazine // book review

Lucas Blalock’s work is uncomfortable. As an artist he is somewhere between photographer and sculptor, or maybe also collagist and painter. He draws with Photoshop, or cuts and clones–using the “dumb tools” in “blunt ways,” as he says. This, too, is uncomfortable. Typically, when the seams of Photoshop show we consider the work unsuccessful, but […]

PHROOM magazine // international research platform and contemporary fine art photography and video art magazine // book review

PHROOM magazine // Shyue Woon

“In my daily practice as an architect, I am responsible for the design and construction of complex buildings, such as airports, train stations, or high-rises. Architecture is a slow process, and after almost two decades of work, it seems like I am losing the ability to dream. This is why photography became vital to me […]

Signal Noise // Aaron Rothman

PHROOM magazine // international research platform and contemporary fine art photography and video art magazine // book review

The first consensus that Aaron Rothman and I reach about Signal Noise is that he has made something incredibly weird. The book, a culmination of ten years of Rothman’s picture making across the landscapes of the western United States, disrupts most conventions of American West Landscape Photography. This is a good thing, as that genre, […]
