DESCRIPTION

Watercolor on archival paper | 2017

This series of paintings from Thompson is inspired by classic subjects often favored by artists - the still life, and the nude. Interested in the idea that strange digital creatures such as emojis and gifs are now a part of our modern mythology, the artist explores this new form of symbolism to aid us in communicating our values, ideas and experiences.

We prostrate ourselves at the foot of technology and the only ritual we perform with reverence is posting a selfie.

Thompson employs metaphor, simile, metonymy, and other literary devices to create conceptual proximity between disparate things, and to editorialize and re-contextualize the objects she makes or finds.
