Through still-life and figurative painting traditions, Kim Anderson’s work explores the codification of images, psychology of looking, and shifting boundaries between physical and digital experience. Drawing from vernacular photography, home movies, 19th century cinematic antecedents, and thrift store artifacts, she recontextualizes found materials into fictional narratives that examine gender, memory, and material culture. Her paintings evoke tensions between the personal and the commodity, reflecting on women’s roles as subjects, practitioners, and patrons within visual culture. Expanding into stereoscopic painting, she offers uncanny perspectives on perception and media, reflecting on how images and objects accrue meaning, value, and stratification within hierarchies of visual culture.
