At first blush the work recalls abstraction strategies used by modernist artists, most immediately Joan Miró. However, situating the forms in and around representational imagery such as landscapes, (suggested) figures and portraits, and physical objects grounds these ideas in more subjective experience, humanizing them. There’s a similar synthesis in the way that your line qualities bring to mind cave painting (especially elements of Matrix of Opportunity), but also mapping or topographic views, satellite imagery, etc. Despondent Thematic Map feels more like a satelite image, while Map to Social Distance Overnight brings to mind the dérive mapping of Guy Debord/Situationist International artists. Review by Peter Williams
Film and Sound Art
Follow the hallucination of a group of civilians as the amoeba eats their brain cells. The one hallucination they all have in common is that they see Mimes, but as death comes so does the reality that everything was a hallucination except for the Mimes.
The Mimes are real.
