Tech Vanitas  Virtual Opening Reception - Sat. May 1, 4-5pmClick on Play below to see the online Zoom opening reception that took place on Sat. May 1.https://vimeo.com/547759482Jeanette May’s “Tech Vanitas” photographs embrace anxiety over new technology and love for beautifully designed, obsolete machines. Her still lifes suggest 17th Century Dutch vanitas paintings with their air of craft guilds, international trade, and personal wealth. Her carefully disheveled arrangements of familiar devices also allude to product photography and advertising. “Tech Vanitas” examines the present and the past of technology with a sense of wonder and trepidation.
