Nothing lasts for ever 2008

Picture
Nothing lasts forever  2008  John Buckley Gallery

Gathering together some of the key signifiers of our info-centric society – strings of binary code, grids, matrices and pixels – each work is a painterly representation of the visual static that permeates contemporary culture.  Pitching the rational against the intuitive and revealing a complex interplay between them, [Eaton’s work] highlights how awkwardly and precariously meaning is ascribed to the man-made sign systems that mediate our day–to-day experiences of the world.
