Green (The Crash) is a pastiche of 1950s hard-edge painting styles, 1990s video game aesthetics, and science fiction's cultural lexicon. I am drawing from speculative fiction, alternative universes in popular culture and queer theory. This work explores the idea of a 'crash of timelines' that unpicks the queer experience of time. Pixelated free forms, reminiscent of a close-up motherboard (or an isolated corner of a QR code for a contemporary comparison), dominate this series of works. Wherein shapes and colours and employed to invoke the non-linear timeline associated with a deviation from heteronormativity. With this series, I presented an alternative to the linear experience of time through the invocation of queer micro-utopias - an escapist's imagination of the possibilities offered by the digital-physical spheres of science fiction and video games.
Crash! Boom!! Escape into a celestial pixelated dimension between the hetero and queer worlds.
