André Hemer's exploration of painting in the digital age has seen him travel from Canterbury University to the cover of an international contemporary art book in a decade.
Pataka presents the first institutional survey of this exciting artist’s first ten years.
As traditional representational painting depicts the world, so too, paradoxically, André's paintings represent contemporary culture and the transaction between the digital and the material.
This is art about art, painting engaged with painting’s materiality and history - fashionable and full of fun, intellectual and serious all at once.
