Flashcard Paintings

FLASHCARD PAINTINGS

Flashcards are an educational aid. A student reviews a prompt on one side of a card, offers a corresponding factoid in response, then verifies her response by checking the intended answer inscribed on the other side. In this manner, sums of information are systematized and committed to memory. In the paintings below, content is similarly “flashed" from card to card, prompting the observer/viewer/reviewer to seek relationships between neighboring cards, between broader groupings and the overlaying imagery.
