How does your day job in Systems Engineering reflect in your work? Do you think it helps you see the world in a more calculative way? Tell us about your thought process.

I think my role as a Systems Engineer ties in with my overarching passion for technology in general. Ever since I was a kid I’ve been playing with computers, building systems and taking things apart to understand how they work. That fascination at a young age led me to my degree in Network Engineering and finally my job as a Systems Engineer. Digital photography has always been a way to express my knowledge of technology through a creative outlet. 

Technical understanding of things is important to me. I think knowing what your camera is doing under the hood is a great way to bring a passion for photography full circle. Understanding things like how chromatic aberrations are formed, how a CMOS image sensor works or even how autofocus works can make someone a more well rounded photographer. I feel being good at photography stems beyond just taking good pictures, understanding how your gear works is a huge part.

Preview: Kris Kuksi’s “Antiquity in the Faux” at Mark Moore Gallery

While Kris Kuksi’s baroque assemblages (first covered in HF Vol. 19) have an ornate aesthetic suited for marble or gilded bronze, his work is composed of carefully-chosen collections of commonplace, throwaway objects. Kuksi assembles dolls, jewelry, model parts and various consumerist debris into monumental dioramas. Within them, his characters are embroiled in a chaotic drama of violence and sex, which Kuksi carefully contains into symmetrical, harmonious compositions that appear deceptively decorative at a first glance. The Kansas-based artist will be showing his new body of work for his solo show, “Antiquity in the Faux,” opening at Mark Moore Gallery in Los Angeles on November 15.
