i stumbled upon the clever photography of chema madoz on a blog last week, and now i think i’m obsessed. thanks a lot, haha.nu!

this spanish artist has achieved critical acclaim by photographing everyday objects in alternate contexts and combinations.

he was born in madrid, studied there, and collected and exhibited internationally.

his work is witty, crisp and surreal. just how i like it.

click here to check out his other work, and to purchase.
