Titled Magnets, Garlic and Diamonds, this exhibition is, the artist says, “a meditation on futility.” Geo rey Hunter’s paintings are often inspired by digital images, greatly magnified to reveal abstract compositions of pixels. Here, he addresses the ways previously held beliefs about the physical world have been disproven through the laborious processes of the scientific method. These he likens to his own method of constructing a painting, “one dot at a time.”
