The Wall - Jon Rafman: Brand New Brand New Paint Job

In dialogue with Perspectives on Collage, The Wall will feature projects looking at photography in relation to the tools and practices of digital post-production.

Originally disseminated in blog format, Jon Rafman’s Brand New Paint Job is a project in which famous paintings are used to wallpaper amateur 3D models collected from Google 3D Warehouse. The project moves through a succession of hyper-real, lobbies, office spaces, cars and lounge rooms using a virtual camera. The resulting images reference the world of interior design magazines, 3D gaming, social media mashups and synthetic photography. Rafman will be re-working the project as Brand New Brand New Paint Job specifically for The Wall.
