During my residency in Barcelona late last year I began to develop pictorial language concerned with representation of complex figurative forms. These paintings explore ideas found in social media, continuous streams of visual information colliding with opinion, challenging our perceptions. Also, feeding on our own visual appetite, informing our ongoing algorithm.
The works themselves are constructs. In shuttered effect, flipping through the pages of a magazine or scrolling on a smartphone, penny arcade peep show. This painting is an extension of my current body of work. The monumental forms echo classical sculpture, rising on a dais. Juxtaposing a visual narrative of contemporary socio-political themes with personal iconography, in the form of reoccurring motifs. I have also continued to explore themes of sexuality present within social platform. I am in a sense tracing the human condition.
