scape
Work ID: 63493
Description: The frescos are made with a wood frame and with wire mesh to hold the fresco material. They are sized in reference to digital media, using either the same width/height ratio as a computer screen or the same as a television. The pigment, brushed through the openings of the patterned tissue, becomes fixed (and dries) into the surface of the wet fresco. Patterns and shapes are arranged in a configuration which suggests a face but is elusive in its identity.
My main concern for this series of work is how images and meaning are constructed through perceiving patterns of colour and light and dark. The notion of pattern recognition involves identifying a correspondence between a stimulus and information in memory. What interests me is how the perception of pattern, often with little information, triggers memory and allows the viewer to construct meaning. The frescos consider the ways we recognize, perceive and remember.
