Untitled portrays an ordinary image, the kind seen in a million postcards and magazines. Rendered on a monumental scale, Skreber reconstitutes the mundane as the object of an all-consuming fixation. Completely static, the painting is removed from all measurable qualities of perception. It represents a generic stand-in for overwhelming sensations of inadequacy and incomprehension.
Suspended in time and space, Untitled occupies an incalculable gulf between charisma and disaster, a reflection of the numbing state of contemporary consciousness.
