Todd Cole, Carmelita, California No.1, 27 x 35 cm, C-print, 2002.

To work or act ineptly or inefficiently.
 
His work is composed mainly by urban landscapes that somehow have been controlled or manipulated by the society. In his series of Antennas Disguised as Trees, he photographs landscapes in which appear telephonic antennas that have been camouflaged to look like trees. Despite the fact that these false trees seek to be mixed with the landscape, its poor execution shows the exact opposite. What it actually does project is an unnatural and very representative sensation of how the artist sees the city of Los Angeles; the city of illusion, eternally influenced by the industry of the cinema and the artificial landscapes of the American consumerism. The result is a group of images of urban landscapes subtly manipulated by failed illusions.

He was born in the city of Los Angeles where nowadays he lives and works
