Abstract reasoning involves problem-solving, recognizing patterns, and engaging with logical frameworks. It reflects the ability to think conceptually, understand intricate concepts, and detect patterns and relationships without the need for concrete or specific examples. Tell me, what do you see? /// ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Working as a nightshift school custodian, each of these pieces begin as a simple photograph of a textured workspace within the high school. Think a well used workbench, a table in the art rooms, or even the beat up doors heading out to the loading dock. What do all these scratches, dents, dings, stains, etc. have to tell us? What stories do they have, how many students, employees, projects have they seen through the years. How many pieces have been created on their surface? First the photographs are run through glitch software multiple times, then through a variety of photomanipulation tools to adjust colors, add layers, etc. and finally upscaled slightly via AI. Each piece is set up for 16:9 format to display on your screens -or- flip to 9:16, there is no 'right' way to enjoy any of them.
