Hectic, harried Thursday greetings, collectors! Relieved to be out of the NYC heat I am, but my SF-bound flight was delayed, putting me to sleep well after 1:00 a.m. This lack of solid Zzzs and general jet lag, paired with a back-to-back schedule, feels a little like what might be the human incarnation of the objects that appear in today's photographs from Todd McLellan.*
The precursors to his more orderly editions, these (THREE!) latest prints—Apart Camera, Apart Flip Clock and Apart Typewriter—show the beauty and intricacy of ordinary (and outdated) things as they are erupting into space. His documents expose all the tiny, crucial parts that make these obsolete items function; frozen in mid-explosion, their components—minute and integral—are taut with tension.
It makes you wonder how much time goes into making something so precise... and so disorderly. Just think of the deconstructing and reassembling of these mechanical objects for photography's sake! Thankfully, Todd's meticulous attention to detail and his painstaking process in constructing his Disassembly series—which also includes Old Camera, Old Typewriter and Old Flip Clock—are all captured on video. When Todd McLellan photographs the gadgetry and inner workings of obsolete everyday objects, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

*Speaking of hectic schedules, Todd recently welcomed a baby girl into his family! Congrats! And it seems his detail-minded, curious and mechanically-inspired eye has caught the attention of some big name clients: Todd's latest coup was shooting an ad campaign for VW. Double congrats!
