Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

Oliver Coran's "Untitled" features a vibrant blend of swirling colors and abstract forms atop a transparent plastic surface, with layers creating a dynamic sense of depth. At the bottom, a subtle rendering of a figure emerges amidst the chaos, offering a glimpse of recognition in the abstract expanse. His technique of painting on both sides of the transparency fosters a complex interplay of foreground and background, enhancing the visual confusion. This piece reflects Coran's exploration of perception and recognition, rooted in the interplay between light and material observed in his decade-long practice on plastic. ...

Artist

Oliver Coran

B.1992, American

Coran has been painting on plastic for ten years, a technique whose references are wide-ranging—from digital screens to 19th-century Japanese reverse glass painting. He has developed a method of painting on both sides of the transparent surface, producing multiple overlapping foregrounds and backgrounds. The see-through surface is not just a support but part of the image itself. It catches light, mirrors, and introduces a delay—something you have to look through. Painting on plastic suspends the image within shifting, disorienting effects that reflect his exploration of perception, recognition, and the slippages between them. ...
