305. Neon Skull


Arranged Neon Signs (approx. 4ft x 5ft [1.2m x 1.5m]). A huge thanks to my friend Bob Ziegler who kindly let me play with the bits and pieces of old signs that were laying around his neon workshop. This is a temporary arrangement on the floor of his photo studio. The signs had to be face down to prevent the wiring from shorting out. To give you a sense of scale here is my assistant Kristin standing by (also shown are the three transformers used to light it up).

  2. Wow! I was looking for you to say that was a photoshop composite. I should have more faith.

  3. Bruce Nauman, eat your heart out.

    I may have to use the f word on this -- this is my favorite so far. It finally edged out day 43.

    I'm just saddened to hear it was temporary!

  7. Tim: The JO/AC is from Jordache. I have no idea what the script text was for though.
