Jaron Childs – How to Make a World

Jaron Childs’ exhibition presents a new series of hyper-realistic and finely detailed paintings, based on his own photographs, that are a rejoinder to contemporary attitudes about beauty in painting. He has done this by carefully choosing images that both test the limits of acceptable sentimentality for critical art and offer visual pleasures that also contain sensations of alienation and loss. With a relatively small number of works, “How to make a world” is meant to engage the various and contradicting claims made on painting regarding beauty, artistic merit, and its relevance as a medium.
