ET: 8x8 variations.(2022) 1/1 edition. Series of 128 unique 8x8 images. Collection of 128 two-color digital images, 8 x 8 pixel resolution. The digital series derives from digital images and the painting ‘ET’, created in 2003. ‘ET’ references the ATARI game 'ET the Extra-Terrestrial'(1982), that in turn is based on the film. It further abstracts the character almost to the point of non-recognition. (2022) PIXEL BLOCK PAINTINGS(2003)'Modernist painting went to great lengths to divest itself of any suggestions of illusion. I’ve always embraced comments that such-a-such a painting ‘looks like……’, the process of recognition in the face of an abstracted image. The lack of information is interesting in itself. Vitality, quick-fire recognition.' http://www.trisant.xyz/pixel-block-paintings/ Reference: 'ET' (2003), sign painters enamel on board.
