works pre-2010 > harmacy, 2002
harmacy is a 'cover version' of an artwork by John Baldessari, instigated by a coincidence.
In early September 2001, I bought a postcard of a work by Baldessari that includes a photo of two high-rises in mid-catastrophic explosion. A few days later, the World Trade Center in New York collapsed.
Using the Baldessari work as a formula, harmacy was created using found media images of the 'real' September 11 events.
