CurEater Marjorie Hodges from the North Carolina Museum of Art will screen a video created by U.K. artist Quayola whose work has been shown around the world. Inspired by the work of Vincent van Gogh, Quayola traveled to Provence, France, 125 years after Van Gogh famously painted there. As a nod to that painter’s expressionist style, Quayola’s own Provence landscapes morph from realistic images of windblown trees to abstracted scenes of color and texture, as the natural forms begin to bleed into one another in swirls of disintegrating pixels.
