> spray-fixed chalk pastel on raw canvas. He uses this approach in order to
> bring traditional or archaic representational qualities into a contemporary
> context, reestablishing the object-hood of the piece, through attention to
> its unusual physicality. The work that he makes is not solely meant to
> represent the image being depicted. It is also meant to represent the
> image's original format. As references, he use Google image search results,
> YouTube video stills, photographs from the Library of Congress archives,
> and newspaper clippings.
