"Inspired equally by Gaugin and Go-Pro, Steve Driscoll’s paintings respect tradition but embrace technology. More than just re-imaginings of the landscape, his paintings, materially and conceptually, also illustrate how advancements in technology are shaping our interactions with the world and supporting innovative approaches to art-making. Like the glow of a smartphone’s screen, the surface of a Driscoll painting embodies how digital technologies contribute to contemporary obsessions with capturing, editing, documenting and sharing lived experience."
