Jason Rhoades — 92 Caprice Book Stop
Jason Rhoades

92 Caprice Book Stop

In *92 Caprice Book Stop*, Jason Rhoades fills a utilitarian plastic five-gallon bucket with an eclectic assortment of everyday objects — photographs, hardcover books, a VHS tape, a wheel chock, a metal car fragment, and a cotton rag. The work evokes the chaotic accumulation of American consumer culture, collapsing the mundane and the personal into a single, unglamorous vessel. Rhoades transforms the bucket into a kind of time capsule, where automotive detritus and domestic ephemera coexist in deliberate, democratic disorder.

Medium
Plastic five gallon bucket with mixed media contents, including photographs, hardcover books, a vhs tape, a wheel chock, a metal car fragment, and a cotton rag.
