Dash Snow — The New York Times
Dash Snow

The New York Times

2006

A frenetic collage built from torn and fragmented New York Times newspaper clippings, layered and assembled in a raw, chaotic manner that reflects Snow's anarchic downtown New York lifestyle. The work subverts the authority and formality of the iconic publication, transforming its language and imagery into something visceral and personal. True to Snow's provocative practice, the piece blurs the line between destruction and creation, using the detritus of everyday media as both material and subject.
