The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them, Ross explore humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it, for example, a history book, an instruction manual, or a magazine advertisement), placed on a white background like some kind of specimen, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront, contrast and converse with each other, and thereby build new relationships, narratives, jokes, and contexts.
