HHS! Contender: Deron Bauman

I can't believe my eye by Deron Bauman


A photograph tells a story. But contender Deron Bauman goes a step further, by taking something overheard on the shoot and making it the title caption. The results are inviting, strange, and sometimes comical. By tightly binding words and images together, the narrative aspect of the picture is reinforced. While not as extreme as a jeering episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000, this approach suggests some in-built viewer commentary as well.

I was going to be you for Halloween but my dick wasn't big enough by Deron Bauman


Words supplement the image to create a second reading, an alternative documentation for the same story, activating the invisible. We become interested in what he isn't showing us, a world beyond the edges of the photograph. Deron points, shoots, and laughs at the limits of photography, while at the same time expanding its boundaries a little further into our imagination.
