{far4) will host one of Seattle’s most digitally different artists at our store for First Thursday, from 6-9pm on October 1st. James Dykes Atwood pushes every pixel on the digital canvas of his mind after which he downloads to a remote printer in his studio. He goes over every image many times, not to just add layers or story, but to make sure that everything is correctly translated from analog to digital.
“I prefer to combine original photography with outside sources, I scan film, prints, and organic material. Even though it is viewed 2 dimensionally, the structure of photoshop is very 3D. My technique is as much sculptingpixels as it is photographic.”
We will be showing pieces that have been selected by James that represent his technique as an artist but also as a story teller. The artist might be in attendance but his assistant will be there to explain his work as well as answer any questions. We will also have white wine and Theo chocolate. Stop by to sip some wine and take in some spectacular pieces by James Dykes Atwood.
