Contemporary Abstraction

With the onset of intermedia, digital, performance and installation art, abstract painting today seems to be in comparison, a more conservative approach in art. In the past, I have dabbled with different mediums such as photography, film and installation art, but invariably I am drawn back to abstract painting.

Even though I choose to concentrate on abstract painting, I feel that this art form doesn’t seem to be ‘in vogue’ in light of the many technological developments and mediums available.

This has led me to question: Is abstract painting still a relevant and engaging artform in today’s contemporary framework?

My paintings deal with the notion of contemporary abstraction and its possibilities in light of today’s Postmodern concerns.
