Fixing the Oscillating Weight is a series of collages that form haphazard relationships between multiple images presented on one surface. Poetic relationships emerge when picture images are appropriated, collaged, digitally re-photographed, and displayed as photographic abstractions. An assortment of magazine advertisements and image clippings are arranged to form compositions that comment on current technologies, digital imaging, photography, and everyday life. This work
re-assembles visual materials to create imaginary spaces within a single photograph that act as mirages that address contemporary dissonance.
Facilitated by a dream-like state from personal experiences of nomadically wandering through Los Angeles, memory of certain events allows for the production of these photographs. These intimate reflections on photographic space investigate the desire, intimacy, and fantasy found in images and representations of everyday living.

In A Romance In Pictures, Calvin Lee investigates the abstract spaces of desire conditioned in representation. Drawing from his archive of magazine advertisement tear pages, Lee selects, appropriates, and merges images to create collaged compositions. The manipulation of the ads explores technological applications and the digital form in its own self-reflexive plasticity. A Romance In Pictures is a narration of the artificial boundaries surrounding the fabrication of desire: the absence and loss of desire and our infatuation with it are integral to the age of digital imagery.
