Scenes From a Machine Shop No I

PXL_20221215_230053400_edited.jpeg

Another thought crossed my mind today as I wandered through the shop floor, looking for a project. How about a set of photos of the machine shop where I work? Wander aimlessly and take a photo or two...hey why not?

I found these "chips" on a floor mat. Each hole, to me, made me think of an entire, unique universe. Each hole filled with a unique set of surfaces and objects to think of our universe(s)...as above, so below, as they say...

One never knows what one will find on the shop floor, let alone where it will take one's imagination...

I especially like the first one, took me a while to find out what's actually happening. At first I thought how crazy to arrange those little piles in perfect circles before I realized the plate is above them. Nice optical illusion happening there.

You're an artist by nature.

One can see it in your footage and this is just wonderful!

What kind of machines and for what if you don't mind me asking?

Well thanks so much! You never know what others think, you know?

The machine shop is more or less mills and lathes...with a lot of various chunks of steel and metals scattered...a real art find ready to be discovered!
