Randy Grskovic’s abstract photo art is a collage representation of specific moments in history, captured by low resolution photographs. The subjects in the old photographs are replaced with the decorative essence of the collage within the new composition. Photographs become materials rather than forefronts in the artist’s artwork.
Stephen Foster accurately describes Randy’s manner through mentioning that "by problematizing representation and making its process transparent, Grskovic sets up a dialogue between what we consider to be real and our propensity to idealize that reality."
The association between reality and representation is bluntly depicted in the artwork. The fading line of what the audience considers to be true and untrue depends so much on the manner people receive the stimuli they have to decode. Randy Grskovic’s work is fascinating and stimulating for its fiercely thought-provoking nature.
