Anderson’s Papa Object is an ongoing project which presents a body of collage and print-based works on paper that probe the role of art and objects in a world saturated with material goods.  Anderson’s process-driven work utilizes scanned images sourced from auction catalogs and magazines, transformed to advert-poster scale paintings that are layered with hand-printed shapes, spray-paint, and brushwork. The resulting compositions animate and re-contextualize the presentation of high low objects that populate contemporary life.  

From Anderson’s notes about the project:
“Papa Object was inspired by a childhood of overwhelmingly abundant material culture and redeems talismanic individual objects from their anonymity in a marketplace gone off the rails.”
