DK [Dave Kennedy]

“[DK] works with weird found objects, these artifacts of human effort, small fragments of purpose, determination, hope, or necessity—artifacts whose place in the world could nearly be reverse engineered through their idiosyncrasies. [DK] documents these modest objects with a particularly low fidelity tool: the photocopy machine. Then, through taping and folding, he creates lo-fi clones freighted with new purpose. They are objects of celebrated importance, of fragile beauty; [DK’s] methodical, quiet, practice persuades us these otherwise simple objects are worth consideration. Their existence is the focused language of our existence and we can see our own lives reflected in the essence of their lost meaning.”
