Sexton’s Notes:
‘The Over Familiar’ exhibition title refers to some kind of question about how we may, in some ways, be gelling all our visual experience. An overload, where looking anymore may never be enough.The landscape becomes indistinguishable from the city or sea scape, when we are constantly looking beyond, tearing at our perception for new information.The painting is constantly morphing to show you more.The paintings force the viewer to greedily dig deep, while the viewer gets the chance to see over the hill to whats beyond.
