Drawing on memories from his personal history and working in a deliberately monochrome palette, Mark Soltero makes paintings and prints that interrogate relationships between images, memory and materiality. For Soltero, a picture space comes together as a result of two independent functions – the way we see objects and events in our immediate surroundings, and how we think about these objects and events. Thinking connects us to images through memory. As a result, the act of thinking engages us in time, history, and association. It is this wider space Soltero contemplates in his practice. Every Moment... is a painting about what remains, both physically and emotionally after loss.

Mark Soltero is an artist living and working in Ōtautahi, Christchurch. Mark’s work is situated in reference to his personal history and the cultural and political landscape of the Postmodernist period. His practice is built around an intense drawing process. Working with hand-drawn and found images, processed in the computer and scaled, transferred and intricately hand traced and stencilled before paint is applied with squeegees or large brushes. While individual marks may be visible on close viewing, the image is read as a single mark. In essence my paintings are history paintings that examine relationships between image, memory and materiality. Many of the images border on dissolution, fragmenting or breaking down in contrast to the seemingly smooth images that saturate our lived experience. Rather than making works in which the image might be shocking, I make works that draw audiences in, yet are challenging to look at. To a certain extent, the work explores our experience of différance, in time.
