Daniel Hurditch’s latest suite of paintings explores our perception of the overwhelming concepts and realities that we encounter in our lives and how we process these.
The paintings in this exhibition are visual metaphors that recognise the process of desensitisation in an overwhelming information age. We are repeatedly exposed to symbolic images presenting current and looming global catastrophes, contrasts of extreme wealth and poverty, power and oppression, micro and macro perspectives of our world, technological advancements difficult to fathom, conflict, death, time and space.
