Michael Dotson makes acrylic paintings that look like early Auto-CAD renderings, but with the character of blitzed-out video games of the future. His paintings make equal use of pattern. geometry, and the odd everyday object (like a soccer goal or a swimming pool), and sit squarely in the aesthetic world of Memphis (who I swear are coming back) and Paperrad.
Though we've see a lot of axonometric, video gamey art in the past few years, Dotson's taken it somewhere else with his particular combination of familliar landscapes and Tron-like spaces. Take, for example, Dream House #3, pictured below: giant black pyramid, Corbusier International Style free plan frameworks, palm trees, concrete masonry units, brick walls and maybe a Miami sunset? I can't get enough.
Meticulous process video here and much more after the jump.
