Attention Infrastructure

Attention Infrastructure: Velocity Studies is a series of abstract works about speed as a lived condition, where perception is constantly edited in real time. Paint is dragged, stacked, and scraped into bands of interference, while collage elements lock in like hard cuts and splices. Across both modes, crisp interruptions and open white fields mimic the way information arrives now, layered, partial, and always mid-switch. The works treat focus like a built system, patched, rerouted, and compressed, shaped by modernity’s demand to move faster than feeling can fully resolve.

This series gives form to what efficiency does to attention and what that does to connection. The surfaces build like a feed, signals overlapping, priorities shifting, meaning breaking into fragments. In the paintings, velocity shows up as abrasion and interference. In the collages, it appears as seams, joints, and misalignments that refuse smooth continuity. The blanks are not a calm space. They are outages where nuance drops out and the human cue gets lost. Each work holds one tension, propulsion and erosion, what speed makes possible and what it quietly takes away.
