Painting 5

By Michael McCafferty

“This work is part of an ongoing exploration into diary keeping, meditations, and translation. Simple parts of day to day life; bathroom tiles, schedules, the walk to work, are documented and translated. The translations are simply technical impositions like tracing, collage and re photography. Slowly the materials turn into a composition until finally reduced to a simple painting or print. The final works then have dual meanings. The first is just as a simple, sometimes minimal or abstract composition, and secondly as a record (albeit a convoluted one) of my life.”
