Steel Wool
Moronic is the first project from collaborative duo Daniel Evans & Brendan Baker. The role of language and the human process of understanding it, are central to the work. Taking cues from various aspects of semiology, the oxymoronic statements that the images are derived from create a void where meaning is not concrete. Space is allowed for the mind to produce all manner of potential outcomes. Baker & Evans focus on this void, playfully manipulating meaning to highlight the fallibility of language and its relationship with the photographic image. In many instances the visual translation is entirely literal, in other cases, the meaning requires a more active search on behalf of the viewer.
