Show Statement

RED WHITE YELLOW is pleased to present new video work by Stephanie Davidson that plays with perceptions of space and time by layering 3D renderings and animations over 2D kaleidoscopic moving imagery.

Stephanie Davidson is a prolific artist working with collages, gifs and video. Incorporating a generous sense of humor but also a great deal of empathy, most of her work can be interpreted as the human being’s existential crisis and their persistence to pursue the pointless. She is also well known for her Tumblr blog, called Rising Tensions, which is a curated space of internet images and gifs. She currently works and lives in Toronto, Canada.
