DIY Meets Southern Culture

August 18th, 2010

A friend of ours, Vince, helped us out with some testing a little while ago and designed this awesome DIY case for his iPhone 3 G that I just had to share with you! Here’s his cases and a description of his artwork. To design a unique case like his just click here.

For my inspiration I wanted to create something about the old south using images indigenous to southern culture, the shotgun house, white wash fences, pigs, wasps but in a way to make them seem like memories. So the scales are off. I enjoy doing that. The childs photo I found at an antique store not far from here and loved it. Made me wonder who he was or is. That’s why I put the bar over his eyes because we don’t really know, more than likely never will. Before the phone, individuals weren’t so important. Few but the immediate family, neighbors and the name you left behind on a tombstone bore witness to your existence. That’s why I fashioned my name from a tombstone at the top. Of course the telephone poles and lines suggest how we grew to communicate and the 404 area code was at one time used for most of Georgia. I thought it was a nice carry through.

I tried to keep this short and sweet and it may seem a bit disjointed but this is the gist of what I was thinking when I created it. It’s more of a sketch than a finished work. Maybe one day I’ll come back to it and create a larger work from it. Who knows.
