Circuit12 Contemporary

This by from 2014 has recently been acquired for a corporate client. This piece was part of the group exhibition WHITE NOISE at Circuit12 back in 2014. Josh Reames’s work considers abstraction and painting in relation to the Internet, and is informed by the strange, new space where a majority of viewership takes place online through blogs and websites. In these paintings, depth, dimension, and the artist's hand are typically lost in translation from object to image, allowing the information to exist as it might appear on a digital screen. Reames' conceptual framework functions as a kind of filtration device for cultural byproduct and its attending relativism, literally flattening a compendium of signs, text and symbols, cultural objects and icons to the same-level composition—thereby removing their hierarchy.
