Personal narrative, realist photography and the pixelated mark of the digital collide in Florencia Alvarado’s Strange Devices, a blend of imagery from New York and Caracas. Continuing her engagement with the intimacy and minutiae of daily life, Alvarado finds tension and dissonance in expression through migrating mediums. In a ludic exchange between the analog and digital conversions; the scanner, devices, cameras, and printing process; these works enact a material translation of the liquidity and instability of interpersonal relationships mediated through screens.
