From Picasso to Turner with Heisenberg
A visual thesis on the transcription of visual data.
This thesis was submitted at the end of my three year MA in Fine Art Painting at the Royal College of Art. It was rejected by the 'Cultural History" department.
If Heisenberg was right about there being two properties of information: waves and particals,
and the more you know about one quality the less you know about the other; then to transcribe visual data from one place to another
will transform it by the choice you make about which property you deem important. This series of paintings started from Picasso's Vollard Suite.
Wave 1 was taken from the original work, Wave 2 was taken from Wave 1 and the particals were made from memory and took thier own form influenced by the surroundings in which they were made.
