pubs.rights-statement	This artwork in this exhibition can located in the field of expanded painting with a specific focus on the spatialisation of colour in the visual art disciplines of painting, video and installation. The works question the nature of visual imagery in an age of electronic media especially the presumption that image making is solely a two dimensional practice. The show was commissioned by the curator Jessica Bridgfoot. The aesthetic premise of these works is that the artist can use any coloured thing to create work and is not restricted to traditional mark making tools like the brush or industrially produced liquid paints. As Stephen Melville (2001) argues, “painting has no essence outside of history, gathering and dispersing itself at every moment”, in this case dispersing away from brush and easel towards other kinds of mass-produced objects. The curator described the work as also linked to “appropriation and reworking of media images as a device to convey ideas” and that my work “uses found book jackets and spontaneous painting to explore the idea of writing and communication in colour.” These works contribute to the field of contemporary painting by offering alternate models of practice that move beyond the material constitution of the work of art, which has become increasingly relative to the means, location and context of display. In this situation the ‘visual’ aspect can become inexplicit, and in some cases time or temporality of viewing becomes more important than the actual physical aspect of the painted work.	en_US
