| The American artist Fred Tomaselli discusses his work, which is currently on view at White Cube in London. In addition to the richly layered resin paintings for which he has become best known, the exhibition features a series of photograms, newsprint collages, watercolours and his first hand-woven tapestry. Growing up in Los Angeles during the tail end of the punk and hippie era, Tomaselli became wrapped up in the culture of both the volatile anger of punk and the escapism of hippie drug culture. Tomaselli maintains this counter-cultural fusion in work that manages to balance, as he says, 'precariously between ecstasy and apocalypse, in that it simultaneously acknowledges the mess we're in, while still finding what's left of the luminous'.
