The Big Picture: VHS monstrosities invade Iceland

by John_A

French artist Ob Rey mashes together a number of different media for his latest series, dubbed “V”HS. The five apparitional black and white images, each of which is accompanied by a short film, is supposed to represent a post-human world in which monstrous beings burst forth into a confusing and frightful existence, their skeletal frames clad in VHS ribbon and whatever detritus could be found during the Icelandic production. Their visages are meant to invoke thought and questions regarding the forced obsolescence of humans and their electronics in our ever-accelerating march of technological advancement. Or something like that, at least. It’s art — it means whatever you think it means.

You can see the entire “V” HS Project on Ob Rey’s website.
