Artist Claire Jervert derives her work entirely from television. She freezes images on the small screen, photographs them, and then converts the photos into iconic, contemplative objects. Her pictures appear in a variety of formats: laminated on honeycomb aluminum panels, digitally printed on large canvases, arranged on the wall as grids of polaroids. On her website, she presents four series: UFOs (significant blobs and smears from sci-fi films and "documentary" sources--see my essay from 1999), skies (tracking the popular degradation of the romantic sublime), game show audiences (people waving and gesturing in Pavlovian fervor), and something new--"fossils" of the homes of Cleavers, Jeffersons, Bradys, and other TV families (using the "stone effect" in a digital imaging program--this is pretty obvious, but it works).
