The few thousand pixels of the original image are then subverted to such transformation that the initial content only serves as a construct to an entirely new physicality. The underlying data of the original is manipulated and distorted via graphic and music software to reappear as a new layer of pixels—creating a psychedelic tableau suitable for reproduction. “A subject born as a representation becomes an abstraction, leading to a visual experience of new wonders,” explains Guyaux. “The resulting body of work is a kaleidoscope of symbolic, and at times abstract, images as well as an acerbic commentary about how violence reflects on some pillars of American society.” In this issue, Guyaux shares with us a selection of images from his series entitled “Icons.” www.jmguyaux.com 36 I BOROMAG.COM I NOVEMBER 2015 THE ARTS
