PULSE
The PULSE Series is evidence of my effort to make paintings that reflect the steady stream of visual and auditory in-put, of the technological filler that permeates our culture.
Inspired by images of digital “glitches“– essentially “pure errors” that can happen during compressions or processor problems - this seemingly random “abstraction” of digital imagery reflects the fragility of translation within our increasingly complex systems of communication. Although the “glitch” images are usually quite complex, there is uniformity to the corrosion. These “pure errors,” although static, are comparable to the white “snow” of a malfunctioning television of the 1950’s in which the decay of the image is enhanced by the “buzz” of the sound track.
These paintings embody light, space, and a sense of speed and sound through the manipulation of color, transparency, and structure. In the pictorial space a fusion is created between the human and technological and the beat of the human heart is tracked with the steady pulse of the apparatus. Surround sound. Saturated color extends across the screen. I am dreaming of Vistavision, Cinemascope.
