In “Two Sides”, analog painting and digital photographic technology are interdependent. One can't exist without the other in a mixed-media role reversal of the two art forms. Small acrylic paintings are painted onto clear acrylic sheets the size of an old-style glass negative and then become carriers for an intensive process of high resolution photography and digital imaging. Magnification at near microscopic levels reveal spontaneous flowing interactions of paint that can only be seen when greatly enlarged.
Also like glass negatives there are two sides, therefore two paintings. One is not a reverse of the other but a completely different yet similar image - shown side by side - a front and a back. One purposeful, one serendipitous.
Scale & Hanging
The two images are presented large, side by side as mirror images.
