About this work

You see two vertical columns. On the left, a Turner painting blurs into colors. On the right, a face—Virginia Woolf—fades into streaks. They line up like slot reels. This digital drawing started in an app called Game of Fortune. Players spin to mix famous art with thinkers. The app edits photos until colors and faces melt together. Now try a real slot machine app. Look up Poulantza, Natassa (1965).
