| My work derives from an alchemistic approach to alter how we see rather than change what we see. It helps to remind us that the over-arching grand scheme of things and the tiny details that are right in front of your nose — are one in the same. In my most recent body of work I have employed the use of silkscreened imagery on acrylic. Adding this process to the existing language of my painting has allowed me to highlight an increasing trend: the movement of mass amounts of users and information as well as the documented growth of technology mimicking organic developments in nature. When I juxtapose computer graphed imagery to dried ink spills, it unfolds into a conversation of parabolas, landscapes, tree-like forms and a pushed sensation of dimensionality. I want to engage the viewer in the conversation created by these three elements at play in my work: Natural elements, technology/information, and human interaction. I define natural elements as the autonomy of the materials, where the work seems to have painted itself or literally materials that come from the earth. Technology, as I use it, can be seen as an embedded code of systems used by humans to further their means. Human interaction is a factor as it manifests through expectations: that of the artist and their intentionality, and the expectations of the viewer and the exploration of their own questions. These all work against each other and at the same time implicate one another, inseparable. Producing a drawing of a system requires a system of seeing. - Cedric Tai |
