CC2022 (2021) Original Mixed-media Painting by Zach Touchon

'CHAOS AND CONTROL’ Series | CC2022

This series is about depth and space. It’s about information overload, and what information looks like when you take out a meaning. I create lots of layers, using found materials and printed materials. I do an abstract expressionism painting on a surface first before I apply the printed and found materials. And then I begin to organize the surface, ultimately thinking about balance and flow and how the piece is going to contribute to a space it is going to be hanging in.

‘’...we are at the end of printed materials. I always thought, a hundred years from now when people will be looking at my works, there will be children who wonder “what is that”. So the preservation of printed materials is one of the inspirations of the series...’’ - Touchon says
