ALTERNATIVE FACTS

This work is an investigation of the mass media and the constant images we are surrounded by. By simplifying forms and fragmenting them as the cubist did I’m giving my interpretation of film and video clips I have seen on the internet. By compressing large amounts of information into the one image I want to capture the feeling of a world of information where truth and fiction are confused, where anyone with access to a computer can hear everyone’s opinion on issues on every aspect of life.

I present my paintings to encapsulate this confusion and see my work as an ever-continuous ongoing singular piece but also consider each piece to be a work on its own. It is my intention with this work for the viewer to consider this piece as a possible beginning or a part of a larger piece but to also accept it as it is.
