At first glance, Dan Boardman’s new series 2014 might appear to be a digital mash-up of sampled cartoons, images jacked from Google searches, and stock photography outtakes. In our current era where photographic truth is often more commonly questioned than taken for granted, it’s easy to assume his work contains some level digital manipulation, perhaps commenting on its permeation into so many facets of everyday life. But Boardman’s playful melted creations are surprisingly made by hand, painstakingly, in camera, with barely any adjustments in Photoshop, and reference vintage cinematic tricks more than those associated with any proclaimed “digital revolution.” These images, which can appear cut up, composited, and sometimes broken into 4-panel grids, ultimately address his ideas about photography’s ability to authentically represent reality, while reawakening his own affinity to the medium.
