“The human presence has shifted into an alienated existence. We identify with technologies that pull us away from our natural environments. Our urban landscapes are created to fit a manufactured system to which human society has developed into. Our domain is unnatural. In this series I use color to outline or highlight our connection to the objects and landscapes that we, as humans, interact with. I use yellow as the symbol of energy and the symbol of our overall interference. We have become an abstract idea amongst our own surroundings. The videos I have created depict real objects, beings and landscapes, but are arranged to show society in an abstract nature. Each video corresponds with a painting that captures a sliver of time. Breaking moving colors into simple static shapes is my effort to provoke the viewer to look deeper into our zesty domain.” Holden Roberts
