Tully Moore

13 July - 6 August 2011



Workers markings left on footpaths and alike leave us with economic symbols with no fixed meaning. Using these marks this series of paintings manifest these forms into fictional organizations that could exist. The paintings sublimate these markings into abstracted forms that sway from the recognizable to the intangible. The paintings offer an inner battle, which would fit in any union meeting or boardroom, as the objects and forms fight for individual supremacy.
