2006, found stereoscope, found table, lightjet photograph
This is a hand-held victorian parlor stereoscope on an antique Chinese table from the Qing Dynasty made for a group show at the LA Municipal Art Gallery at Barnsdall Park. The stereoscopic picture is a baroque view of the decorative motif from the neighboring Hollyhock House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright (commissioned by the progressive oil heiress Aline Barnsdall and completed 1921).
