Swatch Art: A Postomodern Indulgence Part III

Untitled (Tweezerman Eyelash Curler) (2012)
As I have noted before, this series was born out of happy accidents created by overzealous editing of large high resolution files. This particular image is, to date, the happiest accident that I have encountered in this realm.  These "accidents" appear to be getting more and more conceptual, and often are arguably more interesting looking than what they originally represented. That this image began it's representational life as an eyelash curler is nothing short of miraculous, and any part that I played in its making is merely incidental. Now arguably you can't curl your eyelashes with it, but frankly you weren't able to achieve that task with the two-dimensional approximation that bore a resemblance to real eyelash curler either!
