Joseph Smolinski

Joseph Smolinski comments on the relationship between technology and humans. Yet there is a darker, futuristic side to Smolinski's work. His delicate and beautifully drawn works on paper of hybrid tree-cell towers (or power stations) make us realize how absurd some of our man-made structures are. Should we camouflage cell towers to look like large tree? Smolinski comes right out with new absurd combinations in these sketches and he suggests a bit of hope too in that some of these ideas might actually work to generate power and preserve nature.
