Brandon Barr Artist Statement: The work from my "Flash Paintings" series needs to exist in two places. There is the physical structure of the painting, but you have to use the camera flash from your phone to view the reflective paint. This reveals the text, which consists of fragmented social media captions I have found online. The piece then lives on as a physical painting and a flattened digital file, both needing each other in order to complete the artwork.
My “Flash Painting” series borrows imagery and content from online social media platforms. It also highlights the hidden aspects of online interactions and relies on digital media to complete the artwork. Exhibiting this work virtually highlights this aspect while also creating a longing for the in-person art viewing experience
