A common perception among middle and upper class Americans is that low-income workers are both lazy and slow. In reality, minimum wage work is often highly stressful and active to the point of exhaustion. Think of warehouse workers, unskilled factory laborers, farmhands, deliverymen and janitors. The work is typically repetitious and mentally unchallenging, yet demanding of constant, conscious attention. It is not unusual for companies to establish strict productivity quotas that regulate even a worker’s water and bathroom breaks. In “The Minimum,” this type of work is gamified: a worker must earn his minimum wage – still unchanged nationally at U.S. $7.25 an hour – by collecting 725 pennies thrown at him in an anonymous conference room and successfully banking them in a small glass bowl within 60 minutes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d5074f1f318d97b4ac5155/e20c1fdd-8934-4b61-aeca-f5e0c92ae772/thumb+%288%29.jpg Portfolio - work portfolio two degrees (excerpt) Everyone talks about global warming, yet it’s difficult to see directly. While we suspect that today may be slightly hotter than the same time last year, or that drought has become more frequent and that storms have become more violent, the human mind struggles to confirm this is true. And so we go on with our lives, vaguely aware that change is happening, without feeling its urgency. The “Two Degrees” series contains three time-lapse HD videos of sumptuous food that document the decay of animal matter, vegetation, and melting ice / rising liquid levels. The videos were filmed under typical film lights, in which the natural heat byproduct of the lights interacted with the scenes. These lights raised the temperature gradually, and only a few degrees above what would be considered a hot summer day – the same temperatures our planet is threatened with over the coming decades. These are the same tungsten lights used to film human actors in thousands of film and TV shoots every day. Any single frame pulled from the first two-thirds of any of these films wouldn’t necessarily look so bad. Seen out of context, the viewer might even consider the food shown in one of these film frames to be edible. It is only when viewed as part of the whole film that the degradation and ultimate devastation becomes palpable to the viewer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59d5074f1f318d97b4ac5155/24878c8d-994e-4379-b826-223ac94d044a/thumb+%289%29.jpg Portfolio - work portfolio nails on a blackboard (excerpt)
