Stuck between two paradigms of production - the artist constructs a temporary architecture of subjectivity. Neither attached to the heroic pictorialism of the premodern past, nor yet escaped from the constraints of a physical body and social world - the artist is in limbo between Monet’s Garden and Zuckerberg’s Firewall.

Using low-grade materials - from photocopy toner to spray paint to newsprint, plasterboard and painter’s dust sheets - while copying language forms from the digital realm. A poverty of ontology is expressed through a poverty of means.

Everything is in the process of being built or displayed, like a stage set for an artistic identity. @paulkneale hovers below the surface. A motif is repeated. A drawing becomes a reproduction, a system, and finally a press release.

The artist mitigates through language, making recourse to its endless possibilities of meaning and variation as a paradigm for this self-in-transmission.

Die online, we all do.
