Exhibition

Rex Bruce “Inversions”

I found an interesting exhibit at the Los Angeles Center for Digital Art. Artist Rex Bruce spent two years riding public transportation recording images of the L.A. sky-scape. The idea to focus on the climate crisis with the camera always aimed towards that which daily absorbs tons of greenhouse gas: the atmosphere. Stills and video are shot through dirty windows of buses traversing Hollywood and central L.A. and composited at different frame rates, compression levels, resolutions and varied states of digital degeneration. The resultant damage is visually appealing and painterly in texture and form while generating an atmosphere of technological and urban overkill, Los Angeles style.

Rex Bruce is the galleries director and principal curator. The exhibit runs though May 2
