Exhibited: H - Z: EJ Herczyk

My current body of work investigates the invisible information conduits that fill our environment. We are constantly and completely engulfed in transmitted data spewing from every cell phone, PDA, and laptop. In my work, this invisible landscape of data becomes an underworld of interpolated images and garish colors intertwined with the omnipresent lucid brushstroke. The pixel-based and hand painted imagery both interact with and repel one another. Organic and artificial identities emerge and begin to create their own societal narratives.
