Currently working on a senior thesis project entitled the Q.R.code project.
The work is an exploration of virtual space and how that relates to art. The art is aliased by physical objects, in this case canvases with paintings of qr codes. The piece is reminiscent of Robert Rauschenberg's 1951 "white paintings" where the lack of images was actually the art, here the lack of human legible images is the art. Utilizing the qr code or quick response code, (a type of matrix code), the viewer is faced with what seems a plain repetive image that resembles a price tag. The codes can be read via cell phone, they will link to images of my artwork created in illustrator.
