Banners & Skyscrapers
Banners and Skyscrapers is a composition created from found internet advertisements in the industry-standard 'banner' and 'skyscraper' dimensions, which form a significant part of the visual and economic fabric of the Internet. In this piece, these advertisements, which are designed to fit at the top and sides of any web page, converge to become the central focus. Banners and Skyscrapers also attempts to archive this early (yet still utilized) type of online advertising, which looks and feels as outdated and awkward as the proportions that define it.
