Dub Bulls

ARTIST STATEMENT

Dub Bull grew out of a series of paintings I made for an animated film, Lost And Found. It’s a kind of animated valentine to my favorite animators of the 1930s. I wanted to recreate their giddy joy, general chaos and childlike surrealism by quoting their imagery, but doing so in a percussive “psychadelichrome,” take-no-prisoners color palate. It’s an experiment in having color aggressively contradict form. What I think happened in the film is that form triumphed. The figurative continuity of the characters survived my most severe chromatic attacks.

Dub Bull, in print, is also an experiment in making a kind of projector-less animation. By staring at one set of the bulls for a second then quickly looking at the next, the differences between them can make an illusion of motion, or a two-frame movie. The colors in the after image of the first painting mix with the color of the new painting. I like making images that reveal things about the way we see, and these images have a lot of that mischief in them.

The prints in this edition vary with size. The larger the print, the more unique images featured.
