(Signed) Property by Felicity Hammond

A collection of works by British artist Felicity Hammond.

The 21st century has seen a profound shift in the way we experience architecture. Through the lens of virtual worlds, advanced technologies have made it possible to visualize built environments from floor plans, and to digitally generate future towns and cities around the world. Hammond's collages of found images excavate the seemingly perfect world of images, revealing how far removed they are from reality. Hammond argues that when the unrealistic images seen on a computer screen are transformed into print, it becomes immediately clear to all that they are made without regard for the real world. In this book, he combines photographic works with photographic sculptures and installation images, pitting image against object, something that Hammond explains is also happening in urban development. Given a three-dimensional form, the found images are used as a means to show how rendered images define physical space, and how the two surfaces of image and space work together in the urban realm.
