The Quantum Physics of Holly? Print

This is a one of kind digital image printed on aluminum. It is signed by the artist. Obsessed with all things from the 1970's I created this homage to my favorite Saturday Morning television show Land of the Lost. Although one can barely recognize that it is indeed referencing the bizarre reality of that program. Amidst the cheap sets and weird acting the program effortlessly weaved in plots that contained all kinds of quantum theory. Of course it helps when you have science fiction writers such as Theodore Sturgeon and Larry Niven scripting some of the better episodes. Land of the Lost always made me feel extremely uncomfortable as a child as I did not understand what was going on. A perfect example was the episode where Marshall, Will and Holly were on a mountain peak looking through a telescope and they could see themselves far in the distance atop another mountain. Their doppelgangers (doubles) were also looking through a telescope presumably at a third version of the trio. It freaked me out and crashed my mind. The Quantum Physics of Holly? is a work that is designed to be unsettling and disorienting. The colors are neon and garish and the figures are glitched. Holly stands in front of The Lost City and she is shifting between realities and dimensions. These different planes are mixing together forming an image that would have certainly been like a bad trip had it been broadcast on Saturday Morning TV. Viewers of this work, if they are anything like me, might recognize the Land of the Lost references and be filled with nostalgia and or dread. I'm not the only one who found the show uncommonly unnerving when I was a kid. I chose to create this image using glitch software and other electronic art applications because Land of the Lost was shot on cheap looking video tape. I wanted this painting to convey a sense of transient and tawdry shot on VHS type glamour. Sort of an ABC Afterschool Special that had no budget and went to seed immediately after it was broadcast. One remembers it for all the wrong reasons.
