Luxury Paintings
This body of work was created by digitally manipulating recognizable symbols (currency, logos etc.) with the intention of creating pleasing abstract compositions. The resulting designs were then printed on commercial grade vinyl and stretched before being cosmetically coated with clear gel medium or acrylic paint . My intention was to challenge the traditional process of gestural abstract painting by employing accessible software and commercial fabrication techniques to create a seemingly familiar object void of the historical weight associated with gestural abstraction.
