This series of works combining spray paint with readymade letter papers was listed on our website on February 2021 (coincidence? you decide.) By spraying lines on top of or directly blurring the soft rose motifs, Troy dwells on the blurry line between manmade and cosmic decay.

The work comes with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist.

Works in TX

A video and book artist-turned-painter, Troy still hasn't lost the wonder of new materials like toys, molding paste, and most recently flower-patterned plastic bags. Rather than playing fixed roles in a prefabricated play, his works together explore a constellation of loosely related sentiments like serious absurdity, the ineffable scale of cosmic time, surveyor marks, and rat traps around New York. These moments when existential issues suddenly intrude into everyday life or vice versa are most pronounced in the contrast between the digital hot pink he frequents and the scratched, worn out textures like peeled subway ads that accompany it.
