Chris Dorland on Sunday-S
Chris Dorland’s work is an investigation into the mechanics of consumer society. His new body of work shifts the focus away from the representational syntax of advertising and examines the information delivery process itself – the trillions of megabytes of compressed data that transfers from device to device as it flows, virus like, over multiple networks and platforms carrying fractured and abstracted information to the end user. Replacing the painters brush and paint with the scanner, printer and processing software, Dorland’s work is a reflection on technology, consumerism and the limits of communication.
