ARTIST BIO:
For Geoffrey Hunter, the process of painting is archaeological. Archaeology is the uncovering of what has been lost: all the conceits of modernist purity, transcendence, and identity. The archaeologist transforms remnants into treasure: the debris of civilization is categorized, named, and classified, until it finally becomes Art.
Hunter’s most recent paintings continue his exploration of the relationship between painting and digital media through color, texture, and surface. The first step of the process begins with older paintings or past images – sometimes historical images, sometimes the artist’s own work. Through a series of underpainting and overpainting, adding and subtracting, canceling and editing, the final work emerges.
Born in 1960, Toronto, Ontario, Geoffrey Hunter received his Diploma of Visual Arts from the Alberta College of Art and Design in Calgary, AB, in 1986. His paintings have been widely exhibited across Canada and Europe.
