Meticulously layered and overwhelmingly detailed, the collage works of Jordan Martins are the result of a similarly layered and self-reflexive process that involves painting, digital art, and textile manipulation. Inspired by research into camouflage techniques, yet employing materials commonly used to attract attention (e.g., Day-Glo grocery signs), Martins repeatedly deconstructs and reassembles the elements of his work, creating textural fields in which those elements are obfuscated by translucent fabrics, layers of resin, paint. The results are camouflage patterns for the age of big data; their disruptive overload of visual information dazzles, defying the viewer to parse form from content, figure from ground. Curated by Dan Mohr.
