I'm not Gilbert (retweet) Photograph

The use of narrative as a visual form of expression is nothing new. Word play is delivered through letter and matter. Walker uses signage and printmaking letters sometimes cropped and laid out with no spaces between words to force the viewer slow down and avoid quickly reading the statement. Instead the viewer is invited to decipher the structure of the sentence allowing time to absorb the surface his painting demanding that they are not just read but looked too. Surfaces and expression too appear in the work through nods and gestures of abstract expression. Words played out across the surface seem mundane and suggestive even troubled and afflicted in thought. His textscapes are not of narrative illustration but rather more abstract expressive play with words. Gritty, imperfect Walker’s words and phrases are cropped from popular culture, movies, quotes, books and conversations in pubs. When applied within the context of art; their meanings become obscured through marks and gesture to produce imagery rather than simply word play.
