This was from an exhibition I had a few years ago. It's a digital composition of other drawings and mixed media collages that were in the show. At that time I was interested in text generated automatically being used as a component of the paintings.
I used this site to generate the text The Postmodernism Generator which was then typeset and printed onto maps, and other translucent papers, and collaged together. I was more interested in people's readings of these, and their interpretations, than in what the text actually said. That text is gibberish by the way, except for the hand painted text which has (some) meaning. The postmodernism generator reminded me a lot of what I would hear in grad school studio crits, so it also serves as a bit of ironic parody. (Which sounds a bit like gibberish too).

Really interesting and a lovely illustration.
nice conservative colors... your art peaks more of the self ... status quo ...meaning being who you are? Am i right and not to change just because...
gud eve
gibberish and hidden messages... the mask we all use! hihi... oh well I still gotta say, I like the use of blue behind the hand written text.
