About the Work
MacPherson
explains
the
series
as:
the
words
are
taken
from
magazine
articles
and
advertisements
that
use
references
to
nature
to
sell
products,
and
the
photographs
are
concerned
with
objects
that
promise
human
immortality
-
rather
as
advertising
does.
The
words
and
pictures
function
as
parallel
texts
but
viewers
are
free
to
bring
their
own
associations
to
the
words/picture
mix.
