S.E. Nash

My work is focused on paintings that operate in three-dimensional space. The forms in the paintings are built using painted sintra pvc material attached to structures that have the appearance of construction scaffolding or understructures. I cut, route, weave, paint, and combine forms with the sintra to compose the paintings.

These pieces are conceptually fueled by the idea of the past future, or past visions of a future that promises to contain the most desirable advances in technology. Science fiction versions of machines and future devices play out in the paintings' components, while the interpretation of the whole remains elusive.
