MIMCRY & CAMFLOUAGE BY THOMAS JESSOME

→Channeling the technique of Automatism throughout most of his work, Thomas Jessome can perhaps be best categorized as an Internet topographer. In the heyday of advance imaging and image manipulation, Thomas utilizes dated techniques -such as bitmapping- and images found on random Google searches to imbue the saturation of information available on the net with new meaning.

The process is precisely the key to understanding the work. Thomas assembles singular desensitized entities into challenging new pieces which suggest to the viewer new concepts of the information age. Thomas thus rethinks the planned obsolescence manifest in today's technology and its visual culture into a rhizome of expressive meaning. ←

Formally, it is a project space dedicated to facilitating a dialogue between artists and the ideas they present.
