With an emphasis on color fields, sumptuous forms and evocative surfaces, Trosper’s work engages the history of abstract painting alongside editorial photography, product photography and images of beautiful trash. Referencing futurism, new new painters and screen culture, Liz Trosper brings together the machine fetish of technology, desire and beauty fetishes from social media, and the craft and material fetishes of painting.
Trosper is interested in systems of transformation. Each painting attempts perfect beauty using humble and imperfect materials. Each image is a possibility to make something exquisite from humble beginnings, referencing the desire once cultivated by magazines and now fueled by social media and screen culture. This very analogy encapsulates Trosper’s form of new media painting as an x-ennial, standing astride systems that once worked materially and now work both materially and digitally.
