“Phoframture,” is a fusion of photography, framing, and sculpture. Basically, these works are pieces, which use urban construction materials. Most creations start from an urban still life that is transformed into a collage. Using materials found in the photographs, a frame constructed and painted to create a mood for each piece. These works were first shown in 2002 at the Xio Ping Design Showroom, located in Tribeca. (NOTE: Flexible on Prices if interested Contact me at: paulcarluccio@gmail.com)
