Background This work is situated within contemporary painting practice, emerging in the 21st century's technological and cultural context. The exhibition title "oscilloforms" indicates a break from tradition, proposing new art forms and practices aligned with the digital revolution. This suggests the rise of new materials and hybrid methods, promoting an interdisciplinary approach that rethinks both conceptual and aesthetic dimensions. David Joselit's theory of "Painting Beside Itself" (2009), emphasizes the distributed and networked nature of contemporary painting, embracing the evolving relationship between art, technology, and society is reflected in ‘Oscilloforms’. Contribution The series features nine sculptural, photographic, painted, and printed forms, dynamically installed in response to light, pushing my enquiry deeper. Dialogues with Cur8 identified how my expanded focus on photography and the body, has evolved alongside contemporary painting through innovative material use, reconceptualizing photography and the indexical, and employing sculptural forms to explore spatial responses to changing visual languages. Aligned with 21st-century painting practices, it utilizes unique materials and process-driven methods, earning curatorial recognition within a prestigious group redefining artistic practice.
