Shannon Peel has recently started developing his own painterly practice in which he reinvents the traditional formats through subtle animation of otherwise inert motifs. His ongoing body of work Still Alive and Face Plant quite literally inserts life and dynamics to typically inanimate subjects, all while referencing both his graff roots and some of the most recognizable artistic genres. Through the use of dedicated repetition the artist is exhausting the subject matter, switching the focus towards technical experimentation and discovery.
