Oil Paintings in the Mezzanine
The intention of this series is to prompt thoughts of consumerism and its relationship to the ecosystem. In painting these objects, I inevitably portray the potential beauty that can be found in things often regarded to be without value, such as used and disposed of objects. Hyper-realistic paintings require an obsessive attention to detail, and in giving this attention to an object, the objects are beautified in a way that suggests value. Consumerism corrupts human perception of value, and I intend to disrupt this through these works.
