Double Heading

[Ping Pong Gallery SF]

A series of hand-painted graphic posters which take an uncanny pleasure in naming and associating. Odd objects are paired with headline references to fictional and real locales, movements and people. These elliptical markers invite viewers to enter a territory of double, negated and hidden meaning. This work emerges from a perspective of rational skepticism; yet moves beyond towards the paradoxical freedom and tensions of semiotic vertigo.
