Author: Singer, Avery
Avery Singer's 'Unity Bachelor' presents a striking series of narrative paintings featuring a trio of digital characters. Singer sets the story of the main characters Unity Bachelor & Priya Prasad in New York in 2001, a coming-of-age period and place for the artist. Their fictionalised love story is marked by the collective trauma of 9/11, when Priya goes missing, while a third figure, an inebriated art student, who has doubled as a self-portrait of sorts throughout Singer’s career, roams Lower Manhattan.Reflecting the innovative tools employed in their production, the iconic paintings of New York–based Avery Singer are complex interpretations of contemporary social realities and technologies. The large-scale paintings portray worlds that emerge from digital renderings and take shape through manual and digital airbrush techniques, liquid and solid masking, and complex layering processes.
ISBN 9781636811420. DelMonico Books/Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami. hb. 160 pages. 62 colour, 15 b/w ills. 27.9 x 22.9 cm.
