As i ma having a terrible time writing an artist statement, i visited the Market-O-Matic and let it write one for me:

Work of Sub-Art in the Age of Artificial Reproduction

The mind creates, the body accentuates. In the material reality, art objects are calculations of the imaginations of the mind -- a mind that uses the body as an organism to represent ideas, patterns, and emotions. With the synergy of the electronic environment, the mind is approaching a point where it will be free from the body to transcend immersions into the contortions of the delphic reality. Work of Sub-Art in the Age of Artificial Reproduction contains 10 minimal flash engines (also refered to as "clipper chips") that enable the user to make fleshy audio/visual compositions.

measuring chains, constructing realities
putting into place forms
a matrix of illusion and disillusion
a strange attracting force
so that a seduced reality will be able to spontaneously feed on it

Kelsey Barrera's work investigates the nuances of vibrations through the use of slow motion and close-ups which emphasize the Artificial nature of digital media. Barrera explores abstract and erotic scenery as motifs to describe the idea of imaginary reality. Using childish loops, non-linear narratives, and allegorical images as patterns, Barrera creates meditative environments which suggest the expansion of art...
