The photographs in “Unintended Consequences” by Texas based multi-project oriented artist Irby Pace come from camera equipped devices in Apple Computer stores. “On a daily basis people are leaving their portraits behind on iPhones, iPads and iPods. Customers are disregarding their own discretion and abandoning these photographs,” says Pace.

Since these images are anonymous the participants can represent themselves however they chose to without scrutiny. Taking these images explores the change in behavior when people do not consider how these images will be used.

What might Pace’s subjects think? We probably never will know …

Irby Pace also makes one of a kind art pieces by combining his father’s photographs and drawings with his own. Pace believes that this collaboration will help him understand who his father was. ❚
