WHELAN DESCIPTION
OF WORK
My most
recent work questions the inherent nature of painting and
its processes. The painting world has its own reality and
history, as a process it has projected us forward into a
virtual world, giving us a sense of reality, both learnt
and imagined.
The way
in which the painter operates within a formalist space is
examined, through the medium of digital imaging and photography.
Digital imaging allows for different vantagepoint of surface,
space, and time. One, which, in the case of painting, reveals
the painting experience in its totality, stretching time
and space. Allowing for a deeper relationship with the making.
