The Edict of Milan installation

This body of work is the fusion of contemporary painting and digital media. The images curated on this page represent objects from several bodies of work executed in 2012. The actual paintings themselves are a product of my narrative abstraction, and are the manifestation of stories from various times in my life, referencing the epherma incorporated into the work. To bring these tales from my past into the present, their images are input into a computer and printed out. This fusion of the mixed-media paintings and digital process create a new form of art:synthetic paintings.

The pictures below represent real object and digital images simulateously. The works are ideally displayed as image and object like in the picture above. Eash image has an edition of 8, which mean only eight digital images exist of each work. This new realm does not have to play by the rules of traditional printmaking, and give the freedom of choice. Each image in the edition can be printed on ground and at any scale. They can even be reprinted, as long as the previous printed version has been destroyed. They can be made to be site specific as well.
