Extent

‘Everyday Topologies’ is a solo exhibition that makes use of computer generated imagery and painting to chart the interstices between virtual and embodied experience. Works produced for ‘Everyday Topologies’ play with the tropes of still life painting and trompe l'oeil whilst reflecting the spatial anomalies of CGI.
