Best known for his “Flying Car” series, which was featured at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the 2013 exhibition, After Photoshop, Matthew Porter tricks the eye, often producing images that seem impossible to capture on camera. His cinematic photography references Americana, historical events, and cultural iconography, all within a single frame. Porter says, "I’m interested in authoring my own source material. I need access to the subject.” Our print with the artist comes from a series of carefully fabricated compositions made by overlaying hand-made and found objects with pre-existing imagery–resulting in a transparent and lively collage.
