Abstract
Artist talk by Nick Tucker
Description
Artist Statement
In a time when we are constantly being inundated with imagery, how often does something right in front of us go unnoticed? How do the collective values of our society affect what people decide is important enough to pay attention to or consider precious?
For my thesis, I used various materials and techniques to play with the idea of the viewer registering the subject as something familiar at first glance but seeing something else if they look closer. As a multimedia artist, usually the idea for the piece greatly dictates what materials or process I will use. This body of work is a statement about a world that feels increasingly as though it is being written by George Orwell or Ray Bradbury, and these are my contributions to this blossoming dystopia.
