Artist Jacolby Satterwhite crafts surreal animated videos while transporting characters from his virtual worlds into the streets of New York City. ‘We’re in the age of the remix,’ says the artist, how observes that ‘now it’s about how you use the information around you to generate your individuality.’ At a modest computer set up in his Chinatown studio, Satterwhite digitally traces his mother’s schematic drawings of Home Shopping Network-style inventions, re-imagining them into baroque, neon-colored landscapes in a constant state of flux. Adapting additional visual references - home movies, family photos, documentary footage, and images throughout art history - Satterwhite ‘queers’ the purpose and meaning of his source material, creating a unique personal mythology through stream of consciousness storytelling techniques. |
