Awakening spirits that were there all along
AleatoricArt co-founder Alex Volborth’s interest in art history, world cultures and spiritualism plays a major role in his particular brand of found art photography, which seamlessly juxtaposes decaying objects with geological formations. To call his work simply ‘found art’ is an understatement- ‘found artifacts’ or ‘undiscovered art’ would describe it better, as his photos may include anything from a rock formation bearing a resemblance to the Edvard Munch painting, ‘The Scream’, to a small skeleton of an unknown animal perfectly shilouetted in red sandstone. But whether it’s a piece of a broken bicycle or an old Sicilian ashtray, Volborth shows us more than just that with his uncanny ability to recognize the art in the mundane, and create the sense that he is uncovering a secret- by revealing for the first time what has been there all along. -Ray Cabarga
