Event detail
Michael Stubbs, 'Virus Drawing #34', 2009, vinyl and ink on watercolour on paper
Painting is at an interesting crossroads in relation to digital culture and the media - I try to reflect this through the painting’s chaotic visual spaces.” (Michael Stubbs).
This exhibition contextualises Stubbs’ painting practice alongside his rarely seen paper works. Stubbs translates his multi-layered painting technique into graphically transferred silkscreens, stencilled pencil drawings and collages that mix vibrant inks with bold stick-on graphic signs. Stubbs new paper works combine neon coloured shop window signs with stencilled, graffiti style spray paints that refer to the high street recession and continue his fascination with contemporary painting’s material manipulation of the flattened, immaterial space of digital media.
