Slyly referencing the work of Bernd and Hilla Becher, Moyra Davey photographed 54 empty whiskey bottles over a series of 5 years, each captured in the location where it sat after the last drop had been consumed. “One day about twelve years ago, a blurred picture of an empty Johnnie Walker bottle turned up at the tail end of a contact sheet. It was a misfire, but I continued to take pictures of liquor bottle when they’d attained this state of depletion. Someone mentioned Morandi, I saw the totality of the images as a calendar, a marker of time denoted by a particular type of consumption.” -Moyra Davey
