Rachel Perry

Lost in my Life (boxes)

2010

A meticulously staged photograph by Rachel Perry depicts the artist submerged and nearly obscured by an overwhelming accumulation of cardboard boxes and packaging materials. The work explores themes of consumer culture, domestic labor, and the invisible burdens of modern life, using the artist's own body as a central element within the composition. The archival pigment print renders the chaotic abundance of everyday packaging in sharp, vivid detail, creating a tension between the mundane and the visually striking.
