The Paperman is part of the International Free Expression Project. The image is a history unraveled through the use of technology. The physical composite was created using photographs of PPG press workers from the 1950's and my images of the now closed facilities in Pittsburgh pa. A digital replica created using photos becomes a supernatural personification of the men and women who poured their life into the building of the American newspaper and have now become the heart of the mechanism. The creation of the digital space and forced interaction says a lot about what art look like in isolation
