Victor Sanabrais Photographer debuts the Glitch Girl Collection
"Hurry up and load those files so we can go feed the crew"...they said to me after a long day of shooting. I was finishing up a long day at the studio in Manhattan, and was about to discover what happens when you pull the fire wire cord out one of those cool new external hard drives...while its still loading data. The look book pages I just shot and worked on all day were about to meet their fate at the hands of the glitch gods. With the downloading still in progress, I removed the cord by accident and the files were unable to load to completion.
I decided a nice sushi dinner and some sake would cheer me up, and decided to come back the next day and knock this project out with a second draft.
Upon my return, I attempted to open the files that I could now see had been effected by my mishap. As I proceeded to open each file, my assistant looked over my shoulder and said "I will work over time to help redo this. I will delete these and...." I looked back quickly and said "No! Wait...its art!" Real organic digital art. A digital coding corruption, presented as one of kind, glitch art prints on sheet metal.
The "Glitch Girl" collection is a project I started on some 10 years ago, and I am excited to finally present my work.
