Untitled (tents) Painting

Researching social trends, and systematic forecasting of their promise, recent paintings have explored particular social experiments, which, for better or worse, are now generally considered to be over and discredited. I've looked at three distinct and remarkable forms of utopian social concepts from the past, each of which offered equal status and responsibility, and a real alternative to the contemporary society: the 1970's Hippy communes in the western United States; the English communitarian 'digger' projects; and the Soviet social experiment. I am interested in the motivation behind them (whether they were born more from optimism or pessimism), the reasons for their failure and their relevance as contemporary potential futures.
