Showing via a viewing room or in-situ at The Modern Institute, Glasgow is Gregor Wright – a native of the city, who still lives and works in there, having studied for his BA (Hons) Painting at The Glasgow School of Art.

Widely exhibited in Scotland, Europe and the US, he says, ‘I love the physical nature of paint and the act of painting. Paint is the ultimate recording media. It allows me to interpret things in a way that they become direct, real and permanent.’

For this new presentation at the Institute’s Bricks Space in Aird’s Lane, Wright has assembled a set of paintings exploring various aspects of our digital lives, with each work representing a physical fragment of a virtual experience – referred to as ‘experiential screenshots’, with colour and abstract mark-making in a variety of media: the screens, messaging, and fractured attention of the internet’s information landscape, via our smartphones and computer interfaces. Appropriately, given the exhibition’s content, the display can be accessed via the Modern’s website viewing room.

Also exhibiting, from 13th and 14th March respectively, are works by Anne Collier and Yuichi Hirako.
