Electronic media surround us in everything we do. It’s as if the pixels melt and flow from our screens pooling their electronic truth at our feet.
This piece begins as a super-sized representation of TV screen pixels - Red Green and Blue - the triplets responsible for transposing electrons into images for our screens and devices.
Intensity of tones changes and evolves as the pixels trickle down the wall - the lines of quilting stitches steadily becoming more fluid as the edges of the quilt ooze and spread.
The quilt branches and flows as a stream of consciousness spreading into a delta of blackness interspersed only with the smallest glitches of colour on the floor.
