Sam Morgan
Painting and Drawing
Program
Responding happily to a compulsion to paint serially, my work is a reflection of the repetitive nature of working for a living. As I explore the nuances of serial art depicting preexisting motifs such as Peter Griffin or the McCafe logo, I reflect on the potential convergences created by manipulating these icons and consider their impact on the rhythm of our daily lives.
