The artist's statement is quite a mouthful, so we'll leave that for the blockquote below. For now, enjoy Mark Luthringer's Ridgemont Typologies, a collection of photo mosaics that depict the current lifestyle of excess that runs rampant today. The realization is heightened by the tiled, repetitive configuration of these items, making the viewer observe what's usually mundane in an unorthodox manner.

The typological array's inherent ability to depict prevalence and repetition make it the perfect technique for examining the excess, redundancy, and meaningless freedom of our current age of consumption...The typological form achieves an uncanny synergy and resonance with this subject matter because it mimics the mental images I suspect many of us form as a way of ordering the chaos of abundance that surrounds us. We can't help but form in our heads lists, groups and categories based on product, brand, price point, style, market segment, country of origin, etc.
