fax art | printer art

These various pieces have been made by using old fax machines and deranged printers. I was always interested in errors, glitches and other corruption of content generated randomly by high tech equipped. Also, these materials and textures age so beautifully… Sadly the old machines are more and more hard to come by. Thermo paper (thermo-reactive paper, a wonderful, ephemeral material btw.) is getting out of fashion. It is a dying art form. So if by any chance you happen to want to get rid of an old thermo fax or copy machine (not too big) contact me please…
