About the Item

"My work is based on visualizations of energy, inspired by particle physics and forms in nature. I use the lines of colliding atomic particles to explore a new language of abstraction. Fusing physics, digital technology, and painting, I create hyper-energetic compositions based on the unstable paths of speeding particles after collision. I am interested in the structures and patterns of movement revealed by these collisions. To create my paintings, I generate animations of atomic particle collisions. From these animations, I capture still images, which become templates for the work. A collision is captured and digitized through the lens of mosaic, collapsing the highest tech with the lowest tech imaging. Conflating mosaic with the digital, form is created by gluing hand-painted paper squares onto grounds of canvas printed with digital noise patterns. Using acrylic and watercolor, I play with color and visual textures to create layers of depth and movement. The construction of form becomes labor-intensive, meditative and contemplative. What takes seconds to create in a collision, takes weeks to interpret into a painting. What emerges are paintings which reflect a tension between technology and handcraft revealing states of flux; mining the relationship between algorithmic data and the pictorial while exploring the emotional possibilities of abstraction. In all these works, I aim for an intense visual experience of flux- where color, line, and form simultaneously coalesce and break down." Carter Hodgkin, 2023

Circles #8
By Steve Joester
Located in New York, NY
Abstract art. Strong colors. Red. Black. White. Circle motif. About the Artist: Steve Joester is a British-born Rock & Roll photographer and mixed media artist, currently living and working in New York City. 
Joester, a leading Rock & Roll photographer in the 70's and 80's, had his iconic images of the greatest rock performers appear on album sleeves, posters, exhibitions and magazines worldwide. Joester made his mark shooting icons such as Mick Jagger, Bob Marley, Neil Young, Sting, and also documented Andy Warhol on film with Rob Halford of Judas Priest backstage at the Palladium in April, 1979. In an explosive interpretation of the rock icons that left their indelible mark on our generation, Joester's unique mixed media works transcend his photography. Using an unconventional mixture of materials on his canvases, he echoes the raw energy of Rock & Roll with his own Interpretation of the emotion and power of the live performances. Joester was the first mixed media artist to be represented by the Morrison Hotel Gallery, and his work is included in collections internationally. COLLECTED BY JOHN VARVATOS RALPH LAUREN E.
