The environments in these altered photographs have been torn, taped, and repaired after the removal of the original subjects. Fashion photographer Alex Martinez and fine artist David Baerwalde collaborate to make new prints from Martinez’s extras. The best results are rephotographed and reprinted as minimal landscapes with mysterious disappearances and "Cover-ups." Nature is so often used as an attractive backdrop for ads. Here, the artists attempt to recapture a certain lost beauty and idealism from before the commercial age.
