James Paterson "Harvest"
Bitforms Gallery
This event has ended.
bitforms gallery presents its second solo exhibition with James Paterson featuring painting, drawing and software works that are grown from a decade-long diaristic process. In his work, accumulated libraries of imagery rooted in daily experience revolve around the subjects of digestion, sex, self-critique and skateboarding. Using ink and programming as primary tools, James Paterson continually cycles through meditations on the everyday.
The Rotten Fruit Tardis, launched online and presented for the first time in a gallery setting, is an animated vehicle that transports viewers between a myriad of dimensions. The “Nun Tit Oracle” and “New Zealand Vine Collection” are among many nested worlds synthesized in software by Paterson and displayed as a wall-projection. When explored using The Rotten Fruit Tardis interface, these environments reveal narrative and creatures sketched by hand, all extruded from Paterson’s drawing archive.
