"Narrative is something I'm very interested in. Bring your own story and tell it to the painting."
"I'm trying to figure out at this late stage of the game what I do, what I am, what I'm interested in. I think I'm making good progress."
"The work in this installation could be called a retrospective, though it is limited to Hockenhull's work using computers."
"That's a question I just don't like to discuss, because it detracts from what should be the discussion's focus, his work and what he's trying to say."
Jim Hockenhull's show, Digital Daydreams, focuses on narrative and the relationship between storytelling and the storyteller. His artwork spans various styles, including representational and abstract pieces, all aimed at self-exploration and inviting viewers to reflect on their own stories. Hockenhull expresses a desire to understand his identity and artistic purpose, influenced by Taoism. The installation serves as a retrospective of his digital art journey, from early Adobe Photoshop works to contemporary generative AI creations, though he prefers to focus on the art rather than the medium's controversies.
