    Honorable Mention in Fine Art / Still Life

In a series of experimental photographs, "Infra-Sculptures" investigates the notions of the everyday through conceptual, readymade-like sculpture translated through the photographic lens. Drawing on the visual vocabulary of Pop Art established by modern masters such as Andy Warhol, the typology within the collection features cartons of liquid morphing, leaking, and struggling to maintain their shape amidst isolating backgrounds of vibrant neon colors.
