Because Clarence Holbrook Carter's War Bride is about a steel mill in Pittsburgh, I wanted to depict this image using photos from abandoned Pittsburgh industrial mills in an attempt to highlight the loneliness and anxiety of the original painting and translate it through a modern post-industial lens. Though the original image depicts shiny, functional systems, I wanted to re-imagination Carter's industrial landscape as defunct machinery in order to depict the kinds of destruction and abandonment left in the post-WWII world while still retaining the sense of loneliness, anxiety, purity, and mystery of the original.
