Johnny Cubert White dropped his camera - the fall scrambled the machine’s digital innards,  Where another kind of artist might have seen as a loss, Johnny White saw the birth of what became his most powerful work to date. 

The first iteration of My Broken Camera has been the SELFiePORTRAIT shows, in which White turns the lens on himself, and his personal flamboyance rises to meet that of the intuitive machine, his puckish collaborator in these freeze-frame spectacles. With the broken camera’s help, White shows off his charisma as a master of disguise, exploring his own fictional roles, making every image a micro-story with the psychological depth and promise of a film still. 

By turns Baroque, disco, retro, classical, and couture, like some kind of Apocalypse Now Liberace playing seance parlor games, in neon yellow eyeglasses and a pageant of glorious moustaches, his iconic platinum mane catching the backlight like fiber optic threads.
