Artist statement:

From the millions of images in a feature film approximately three to four-hundred images are captured using a camera. The images are captured from a movie screen, television screen or computer screen. Each screen presents its own set of characteristics. The film screen, for example, is beyond the artist’s control and therefore chance plays a larger role. The television screen, with its grainy, pixilated texture and fluorescent screen, emphasizes the supermediated nature of the image. The languid glow and high resolution in the liquid crystal display of a computer screen delivers a cleaner, more precise and clinical image.

The selection of a few of these machine-made photographs for translation into paintings, a traditional hand-made medium, is a process that involves the complex patterns of the mind in bringing all conscious and subconscious thought to bear in the ultimate dissemination or exclusion of an image. The painting process that Vivier employs is similar to that of a modern printer and loosely follows a ’cmyk’ colour scheme in that the colours are layered over each other starting with magenta, cyan and yellow followed by black and white. Where this formula is followed exactingly, the surface often retains its mechanical photographic quality, but in many places, the rules of this colour scheme are broken.
