For A.K.A or Also Known As; a solo exhibition by painter Adrian Hobbs, the artist takes the principles that drive his practice and makes them
the exclusive subject of the paintings themselves. This self-referential loop from internal structure to explicit image and back again is an attempt
to explore the possibilities for Painting where it’s elementary and arguably discreet components are seen in a mutual, non-exclusive and generative
(as opposed to reductive) way. The surface, illusory space, the subject, the frame or edge, the object, and the medium for Hobbs are not fixed or reliable,
or even constant, but insteadare ripe with change and novelty.

Dirt Underneath My Fingernails investigates the endured moment as a mode to document the nature of process within the photographic medium.
These images disclose the photographic referent and allowing marks of the landscape to embed themselves into the object of the photographic surface.
Through processing the negatives within the landscape this displays the evidence of the endured photographic moment engraved onto the
surface of the documented landscape.
