Now available via the Constructive Bandcamp (link in bio), an edition of 10 Digital Pigment prints by Paul Prudence. 12 x 12 on Somerset Velvet derived from asemic drawings.

The Bardo Matrix (For A & I)

A mass of signs, alive and morphing, like charged sigils or an arcane mathematical notation.

This drawing, made for the Utopia Or Oblivion project, is part of a series titled New Maps Of Midnight which aims to access an internal grimoire via a process of automatic drawing.

The works in the series hint towards a universal language, which has broken free from the constraints of fixed meaning. Writing has decided to regress back to revealing the forms it was designed to signify; reaching a threshold and a port of entry.

“Whether it is to be Utopia or Oblivion will be a touch-and-go relay race right up to the final moment. Humanity is in a final exam as to whether or not it might qualify for continuance in the Universe.” - Utopia Or Oblivion: The Prospects for Humanity, R. Buckminster Fuller.

Fuller was a polymath and futurist, a contemporary of John Cage and Isamu Noguchi amongst others, renowned for his comprehensive perspective on the world’s problems.

AI generated images by Joe Gilmore were created for Utopia or Oblivion.
