The Narrative.
Better Tomorrows and More Todays
An Original Striated Ink Drawing
The Investigation of the Unknown.
There is a profound area where things cannot be explained rationally, yet they fit within the logic of the page and seem to be known. In "Better Tomorrows and More Todays," Charles Buckley investigates this phenomenon through a landscape of light and shadow. The central glow of the sun is constructed by what is undrawn: the negative space of the paper itself. This original striated drawing operates on the belief that forgetting is a necessary component of remembering. From a distance, the eye bridges the gaps between the hand-drawn ink lines to create a clear narrative of hope. However, as the collector approaches the work, the image fractures into a rhythmic vibration of ink and absence.
The Mechanics of Perception.
Based in Brooklyn and exhibiting with the Susan Eley Gallery, Buckley utilizes a meticulous application of horizontal ink lines to mimic the visual language of CRT television sets. This method, born from a discovery of his father’s 1969 moon landing photographs, creates a sense of movement and instability that mirrors the way memories shift over time. "Better Tomorrows and More Todays" is a rigorous mnemonic investigation into the unstable nature of nostalgia. It is a work that requires the viewer to fill in the missing emotional information, proving that the "gaps" in our history are just as potent as the moments we keep.
