Through digital communication like Facebook, Twitter, online dating and personal websites, the representation of our personality becomes more and more streamlined. We have the possibility to project an idea of how we are as a person into the world around us, but with the constant option of censoring information and invent fictional characteristics. Never have we had access to so much information about each other, and never has the information been so unreliable.

Born in Scotland and now living in London, Mach is known for his use of everyday materials in his work. The Coathanger sculptures are huge forms covered in metal coat-hangers, both building up the volume of the figures and poking out of the forms as well. He is best known for his ‘heads’ created from matches and is interested in making something striking out of the mundane materials found in the everyday experience.

The few images seen here were created to represent the 394 inmates currently incarcerated on Florida’s death row. They were made directly from the mugshots of each inmate currently serving time there. The variation of color and tonality is a direct result of each individual inmate’s portrait with no additional color manipulation—done so by simply eliminating all detail within each mugshot. By doing so a spectrum of color washes are all that is left, serving both as a roster of Florida’s death row and a collection of beautiful color fields meant to be seen together as a whole.
