#SUPERIMPOSITION
This series considers how the nature of dreams—as an experience of images across time—can be turned into a creative process. Responding to the presentation of the project on Instagram with its array of images, each piece begins from the grid format of images generated by the #superimposition in Instagram's search tool. By folding the grid, the linear sequence is disrupted and the images reassembled, layered, and altered, like a dream, into a single composition. Words from the captions of the Instagram posts of the source images become the material for a subjective interpretation running in parallel to these fragmented visual narratives.
Made as part of a collaborative project, Superimposition.

Watercolour pastel, oil, and rice paste on tracing paper

An SOS of a Rankling Tooth (2022)
Watercolour pastel, oil, and rice paste on tracing paper
34 x 33 x 5 cm
In this helpless statement
the dog and things
are freed
from liberty;
the all-consuming wildfires in my landscape
burning the queen
of my chess pieces and cheese.
Remote Nightcare (2022)
Colour pencil and rice paste on tracing paper
20 x 26 x 8 cm
Constrained by the logic
of my sweet valentine
we find our knowledge of self
in a daycare center
where the algorithm of harmony
implants a hyperurania
of harmony and symmetry
fragmented
in a big glass of coffee.
Graham's Internal Weather (2022)
Colour pencil, marker, and rice paste on tracing paper
56 x 18 x 9 cm
The practical vocation of objects
is to evoke an objection.
No super IMO position!
When all the pixels are in place
No happy happening!
To end the pestering pain.
The resistance perfumed full-on in darkness of pure synthetic goo.
Comic Awakenings (2022)
Colour pencil, marker, watercolour pastel, and rice paste on tracing paper

In the underpass of
valleys and hills
Rinsed in the sunrise
Spinning 8000 metres
above the pleasure dome.
