| Filter Generations |
This new series is the result of years of image manipulation and the aggregate impact it has had on the way I interact the world around me through the computer, the possibilities inherent in any visual instance and the obfuscation and revelation of pure form. Pushing the limits of image reduction and amplification has become second nature, an intuitive process, for me. I extract whatever is useful: patterns, colors, shapes, etc.
Traditionally, image manipulation and the programs that are used to process and alter imagery use ‘filters’. Applying a series of these to an image can produce an infinite variety of effects. In the spirit of this usage paradigm, I have generated a unique filtering process that uses the inherent display qualities of modern computer equipment as an industry specific anchor point – an expression of our visual experience through and with the computer. As the images are manipulated, generations of altered images are produced, similar to the change that happens in the sound industry when analog recordings are duplicated and we experience a generational loss of fidelity. The works in “Filter Generations” are a visual analogue for this phenomenon. |
