One machine is always coupled with another.
—Deleuze/Guattari

In Scorpio, his second book of Polaroids, Mike Slack charts a familiar but undetermined terrain through fragments of architecture, geology and space. Designed as a companion to Ok Ok Ok (2002), this collection begins with what appears to be a fallen asteroid and ends with what might be a stray, mythical dog—evokative bookends to a kind of travel narrative (or psychic puzzle) in which Slack’s mastery of the Polaroid medium infuses commonplace observations with hints of a lingering, otherworldly past.


Mike Slack lives and works in Los Angeles, CA. His photographs have appeared in Harper’s, GOOD, the New York Times, and the Los Angeles Times, and his work is in the permanent collection of the Los Angeles Museum of Art.
