Green’s striated abstract works, created by adhering embossed plastic and vinyl strips on panels are both beautiful and challenging.

The careful yet intuitive arrangement of the pallete, texture, and finish of the plastics, and their interaction with the text which transforms them through the act of embossing, creates an object which we can experience, read, look at and interact with simultaneaously.

The artist says of his first solo show and of this particular series:

The work, if it’s going out into the world, needs to communicate. ...Taking things (and words or phrases) that one might ignore, or take for granted, and subjecting them to an inquiry—I try to make work that asks questions … It’s trying to look into subjects with rigor that I get excited about.

Asking questions, to me, doesn’t have to imply that you are searching for answers; it’s more about the act of asking the question, because it opens doors to the unexpected—it keeps things alive. “
