Submission Painting

In Which Universe does Jordan Clayton Live?

These works mean to monumentalize both the unseen and unnoticed through the deliberate construction of abstract worlds that bear an almost kafkaesque melancholy. In using information researched from organisms and objects that exist exclusively on macro and microscopic scales, the work takes on an organic, alien whimsy . The artist is interested in restructuring narratives that intersect between art, science, fiction, and queerness in a melange that forecasts a reality only a few degrees separated from the present. His painted “worlds” employ techniques rooted in abstract and surrealist painting tropes and allow him to create spaces wherein he believes he truly fits as a self-proclaimed oddball.
