For the past few years, Prybolsky has art directed advertisements for a European car manufacturer (its name omitted). Prybolsky appropriates this footage to create remarkable and idyllic vistas. Frame by frame, he digitally erases the car from the original footage. What remains are 'untainted' landscapes which are betrayed only by subtle manipulations and reflections of where the car once was. In photos and video, he reclaims not only the landscape, but also his life. The work confronts media's appropriation of land and its use as a selling stage. Moreover, Prybolsky extends the post-modern approach of deletion and appropriation to come to something absolutely sincere. His process leaves the world of advertising just long enough to challenge our cynicism when faced with a product-less and breathtaking landscape.
