Creative photographer and tinkerer Todd McLellan looks inside the evolutions of everyday technologies. “Things Come Apart” displays the complex parts that have spurred revolutions in product design and functionality across multiple industries and the staying power of classic designs, from the ever-changing navigational systems to the rotary phone. McLellan spent countless hours disassembling objects of all sizes and functions. With each object fully stripped to its bare parts, he methodically worked backwards, laying out each item in reverse order from the protective case to the smallest pieces until the true scope of each design was captured.

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: McLellan is a master disassembler. It only takes one look at his photographs to pick up on this fact. He has a unique finesse for the inner workings of everyday objects that really sets his art apart. The skill with which he arranges his Disassembled items into balanced, evenly spaced, mesmerizingly meticulous compositions is rivaled only by the dynamic, hectic, gravity-defying beauty of his hovering Apart images. For his subjects, he focuses on older objects that have often been replaced by techier updates—rotary phones, wind-up clocks, push lawn mowers. In the case of these two new editions, an old school radio is the star. After scrupulously stripping the gadget to its many parts, he methodically laid out each bit on a bare white background to photograph Disassembled Radio, revealing the elaborate machinery and captivating complexity of its seemingly simple design. Apart Radio is shot against the same background from roughly the same distance, offering an alternative perspective as overwhelmingly intricate as it is seductively lively, like a particularly striking riff in a piece of jazz music … More on the blog!
