Original Multiples

Original Multiples investigates originality by examining how a single design can exist as more than one painted work. Repetition functions as a deliberate strategy, not reproduction. The series questions the stability of the “original” in a system built on repetition. Each composition is developed digitally, tested through a small, hand-painted prototype, and scaled into larger hand-painted works. Custom systems guide both design and execution, combining digital planning, measured translation, and recorded color formulas to maintain precision and continuity. Shifting visual hierarchies cause areas in the work to advance or recede, creating a coexistence of flatness and depth.
