Notes


Conceived through Jess Burgess' commentary on the modern consumption of imagery, Izzy is a disruptive pictorial composition akin to the vast swathes of digital media that we can just discard without much thought.

Leaning on her own experiences, Jess realises these images of women and interiors to mirror her own research into the "virtual window" - the relationship we have with technology and the impact that has on our own creativity.

By bringing more traditional, painterly techniques into the same space as digital media, Jess investigates how the process of painting as a discipline, is a far more meaningful and interactive way of instigating a dialogue between our existing histories as humans, and the new material we create today.
