| 关于此艺术家 |
Exploration of the process of painting and the idea of painting with a deeper focus on the complementary dialogue between materiality, content, the space of the exhibition, perceptual process and encounter with the viewer.
Displacement, sequences, stratification, viscosity, morphological and semantic registers, curatorial and historical operations, are the elements with which I explore these notions.

no picture available [081122]
2008 digital keying paint and thermochromic ink 122 x 163 |
|
" No Picture Available [081122]" is a large canvas painted with digital keying paint used in film and photo studios as a background for digital composite images. It is a surface where everything and anything is possible: a surface waiting to become a picture. As this one (image) appears in certain atmospheric conditions (here temperature of the room), the spectator is once again sent back to nothingness as a tautological message reads: "no picture available at this time". The ephemeral nature of an exhibition is expressed... coming back... soon... |

[3:2] in progress
2009 Thermochromic ink on paper/metal installation |
|
The installation consists of hundreds cells measuring 3 x 2 inches each; the photographic 3:2 aspect ratio now adopted for the LCD screens of our digital devices such as cameras, i-phones and the likes has become our new format of perception.
The scenario evokes the image of a vaporized display of memories scattered about like gas particles in suspense, fully liberated from the captivity of their once fleshy bunker, the body.
A coat of thermochromic ink is applied to cells, causing a nuance such that they may be perceived as an opaque monochrome, a blur or transparent where the underlying image is fully visible depending on temperature and location, the proximity of bodies and heat exchange.
It is an experiment whereby art is the moment of a mutual dependency fermented by an active participation of the senses.
