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
