This week’s featured artist is Witt Fetter ’17, an Art History major and Visual Arts minor whose primary medium is painting. Be sure to see Witt’s work in “All Tomorrow’s Parties,” opening tonight at the Stanford Art Gallery at 5 p.m.
“I started working in Photoshop over a year ago, creating collages out of images I found on the internet. I’m fascinated with creating fragmented, distorted depictions of reality using editing software such as Photoshop. In my digital work, I juxtapose object that are seemingly incongruous in the real world but share an aesthetic thread when placed side by side in a composition. By removing objects from the environments that inform their functions, each aspect of the collage reflects a distorted image of reality. The first work is a painting in oil, while the rest are digital prints.”
