Takeshi Murata makes really amazing video work, but in his most recent exhibition, the work is comprimised of 3D renderings of real world objects, materialized as prints.
The piece's call to mind Claes Oldenberg's sewn sculptures of instruments, René Magritte's grappling with mediated reality, and kitschy horror films all illuminated with, and might I add appropriately so, early-90s style product photography lighting.

These images are culled from Takeshi's exhibition Get Your Ass To Mars on view from April 29th-June 22th, 2011, at Ratio 3 in San Francsico.
Murata lives and works in upstate New York.
