"I am mostly homebound from illness (CFS/ME) and my access to 'subject matter' is limited. So it has been really nice to be able to make art with photographs I've already taken. I started doing this about a month ago, after reading a book in which the narrator is a glitch artist. Before that, I hadn't heard of glitch art.
While a lot of glitch art is 'disruptive' and intentional and I would say often productively disturbing, I prefer to make botanical glitch art that isn't disruptive in those ways. I am more inteerested in mood and color and texture and the act of exploration and play." |
