Ambient Occlusion (2019) departs from a selection of Pre-Columbian ethnographic artifacts from the Pumapungo Museum, Ecuador, featured in the film Global Illumination. The series of images explore the conventions of photographic representations of ethnographic artifacts found in museum displays, exhibition publications and auction house catalogs. Completely fabricated in 3D rendering software, the images sustain a conflicted relationship with realism and with the expectations of objectivity frequently attributed to the medium of photography and museums.
