The Datum: a piece of information, a title for a painting. Within these tunnelled pastel frames a singular paint mark glows green, out of the depth of a darkened void. Recollection of a smartphone interface, in reality a handmade painting. For this exhibition, Jackson explores the incarnations of these paintings – original form, inserted form, vinyl form, positioning – inside and outside the gallery.
