Currently, this has been my artistic practice.
I have a very odd relationship with painting.
I spent almost the majority of my Senior
Year at Parsons School of Design
developing a business plan and realized that
I did not create really any art in my final year
at school. I created an experimental film that
explores the notions of light, color, sound,
and tempo. After developing this body of
work. I found my process similar to the likes
of Stan Brakhage. What was one paint
became 10,000 resulting in gradients of
color, shapes, and light I could have never
foreseen.
Mylar Paper, Paint, LED, 16mm Bolex,
Movement
I took some mylar paper and painted it over it.
After the painting was finished, I hung it up and
back-lit it with a high voltage LED light so that
the negative spaces and white dots from the
brush strokes would be illuminated. From there
I took a 16mm Bolex camera and proceeded to
shake the camera in front of the painting while
taking individual stills. All of the brush strokes
and textures within the painting were put into
motion after the film was alternatively processed.

I wonder where this project can go I think
working with a sound engineer/designer and
further learning how to control the creation
of visual assets would be the next step. The
stills from this series of work will be printed in
large format and will be used in other graphic
and fine art print applications.
