Bottled smoke.
Artist Jim Dingilian uses candle smoke to paint picture-perfect suburban landscapes on the inside of found empty bottles. His hand must be unbelievably steady to completely these images! According to Dingilian:
“The miniature scenes I depict are of locations on the edge of suburbia which seem mysterious or even slightly menacing despite their commonplace nature. The bottles add to the implied narratives of transgression. When found by the sides of roads or in the weeds near the edges of parking lots, empty liquor bottles are artifacts of consumption, delight, or dread. As art objects, they become hourglasses of sorts, their drained interiors now inhabited by dim memories”
