This site will document the aftermath of this announcement and will serve as a home-base for the effort to convince another company to take over and begin producing the cherished technology that Polaroid has abandoned.

staging common objects

Eyal Pinkas

As an artist I want to create a world inhabited by objects captured in a state of conflict between their inner and the exterior realities. Performing a playful behavior can fill the existential gap that is created as a result of this conflict. On a visual level this behavior leads to forms of disguise. Even chairs, mattresses or wallpapers can be seen as costumes. As always, costumes represent the realm of the imaginary.
