Marcus Sendlinger intertwines urban relics with advertisements and travel mementos in his collages, blurring the lines between decay and hypermodernity. The publication “Phantom Ride,” offers a glimpse into the last three years of his artistic journey, exploring promised freedoms in American cities through captivating collages and sculptures.

Layering was one of the primary design elements in this book. Additionally, the intentional swapping of page numbers aims to enhance the crafted, punk rock impression.
