Original artwork description:

actual title; Saint Someone Searching for a SignalLarge framed figurative painting. Ready to hang. The piece is a meditation on mediation and connectivity. The mediation of actual experience through the small screen of the phone is enlarged to an epic scale dwarfing 2 spectators holding hands and contemplating art. The "real" frame is duplicated as an illusory frame within the painting lending an element of meta fiction. The picture within a picture is an allusion to the interiority of the large painted figure.
