“Mobile Office” Photography by Alain Delorme

27 Apr

photography, totem series, alain delorme, artstormerI’m on a hunt for new office space so, in the meantime, I’m largely operating from my 2002 Mercedes station wagon.  I think it very current of me to have a mobile office.  Being “virtual” has its pros and cons.  If you are on a conference call for instance, you don’t want the other party to hear the Starbucks barista taking your grande nonfat latte order.  It just isn’t professional.

French photographer Alain Delorme captures some very hard workers who certainly put my little challenge into perspective.

    Great site, fine artists. I slipped in while on the trail of one Wayne White, whose work I’ve come to admire fervently. Three in the morning in Parakansalak, just around the mountain from where the drunk / reckless Russian pilot plowed his Sukhoi Superjet into a cliff. Dead quiet. Quiet so quiet the ringing in my ears is like church bells. Thinking of how these pikkies from today’s China may indeed foretell the advanced world in 20 years, when oil is a fabled substance and fat folks better learn to put that shoe leather to the dusty trail. Fine job, please please the world some more. Aloha from Indonesia.

    I really enjoyed the pictures. Thanks for sharing! I’ve had many moments that are captured well by these photos.

    I think it would be fair to say these images capture a metaphorical occurrence than an actual physical one. But fun nonetheless.

    It’s just like Vietnam! Love it, would have taken ages to take these though!

    these have a depression era documentary quality (capturing the weary faces of the labor class pedaling to keep up ala Dorothy Lange) combined with the gloss of Disney. Very cool and sort of blade runner effect with the grit white washed (an apt visual representation for what is happening in China) Thanks for sharing these and love the sound of YOUR mobile office. I’d love an old MB station wagon – unlike Sven that doesn’t sound old fashioned at all!

    A bit of ingenuity and lots of determination gets the job done! Nice photos…captures the moments!

    What is a station wagon? I have not heard that term since my ice box went on the fritz and spoiled all my tv dinners! Anyone for a pudding pop? Cool pictures but how does the physics work? Thousands of pounds of downward pressure on a bike tire? Maybe the moral of the story is that we are not pushing ourselves hard enough in our daily routine and/or setting our expectations too low as to what can be accomplished?

      How do the physics work or how does the physics work?

        Probably “do the physics work?” Thanks grammarstormer.
