Proxies plot a narrative in retrospect to one’s layering of memories, through the influential components in the visual culture of our modern daily lives. Images taken from newspapers, postcards, photographs, advertisements, historical archives are taken out of their original context and transformed into paintings, exploring the potential of popular imagery for expression as they are elevated to the level of abstract ideas. Inspired by the power of mass media to generate images and icons that have quickly settled into our culture as commonly shared experiences, artists Andre Tan and Dyn blurred the line between pop culture and fine art to re-invent the chief importance of interest in painting with the transmission of the images into their works.
