"I felt it was appropriate to use an 'old' process, such as painting, to speak about a 'new' process or technologies. Digital imaging, scans and photocopies alter and disseminate visual information heavily influencing how modern experience is perceived. By using and quoting from historical sources, I want to show history altering into a kind of abstract data."
