This image is of a patch of ground on the banks of the Colorado River in Needles, California. The metallic paint changes dynamically in the light. See other photos. From the Series "Trash Paintings" Trash Paintings document various “outcroppings” of discarded man-made things lying on the ground, scenes that can be found almost anywhere on earth, but most often get overlooked, ignored or edited out of the landscape. The painting is titled with the exact geo-coordinates where the original photo was made and is searchable on any mapping software to surprising accuracy. I take a photo of the ground looking straight down. The photo is color separated, burned onto silkscreens, then screen printed by hand with many layers of acrylic and metallic paint. This intensive process reconstitutes a kind of abstracted ghost of the image. Occasionally small editions can be made but generally each painting is unique.
