Tactical Distortion

Tactical Distortion

text by Jonmarc Edwards

These prints begin with the simplest of means, a sketchbook. Jason builds on these sketches with the aid of a computer, incorporating his construction experience with the freedom to rely on his intuition. Using a process that transforms the vector (mathematical) language into a pixilation format Jason distorts his drawings revealing the underlying nature and beauty of his selected three-dimensional objects into a realm of density, detail and cosmic resolution. The macroscopic artworks become an imbedded personal narrative with a beginning (the inspiring object), middle (the compositional tool & layering) and end (the presentation). Colorful and highly evolved, the collection of metal and Inkjet prints express the tangent between idea and concrete form.
