Smoke Signals (Rauchzeichen)
Galerie Sturm – Nürnberg, DE
March 10 – April 17, 2016
Solo



These works ruminate on the perception of our everyday world, marrying it to ideas of a fickle Self. Human figures and anthropomorphised objects are seen investigating their world and each other, using thouch and sight. The figurative swirls towards abstraction and obliteration – and then back again. Patiniott shows how formal elements induce relationships that either prove or debunk an image’s representational and illusionary meaning. The naratives of these images jump between ambiguous readings, contradicting themselves. Humourous, playful and sometimes barely concealed violence, the works declare ‘all that is, can always be different.’
