Jeremy Kidd: Temporal Excursions | Kidd creates landscape and urbanscape images that are simultaneously realistic and abstract. Photographing over many days from multiple perspectives, Kidd will use hundreds of these photographs in the same way a painter uses a palette of oils and acrylics. His process of layering and composing these photographs results in the final irregular shaped artwork. Jeremy Kidd’s work is a direct nod to David Hockney’s photographic collages of the 1980’s, such as Pearblossom Highway, 11-18th 1986. Hockney creates a flat cubist composition using color photographs, which requires the viewer to connect these visually fragemented components of a deconstructed scene in order to assess the complete image. In contrast, Jeremy Kidd presents a seamless collage in a realist style that bends time and space, providing a highly manipulated image, thrusting the viewer into his fictional reality.
