Cell phone technology has created globalization across almost every culture in the world. I am interested in exploring the changes this capability has brought, and the subsequent impact in video and photography today on the internet. My work focuses on the real power of individuality, and showcases a variety of ways in which cell phones are used in today's culture.
"Michael Finnegan's paintings are inextricably linked to photography, particularly contemporary imagery derived from cell phone cameras—devises that follow us wherever we go these days and document virtually every aspect of contemporary life. In addition, his paintings are process-rich, with the result that familiar scenes blur into expressive abstractions."
