The blurring of binaries is the hallmark of contemporary culture. The homogenization of global culture seems to obsessively merge seemingly antithetical ideas, objects and modes of convention. The social and environmental landscapes that construct our daily lives are dynamic canvases in constant flux seeking equilibrium.
Think Tank, a socially progressive art project utilizes urban art to disseminate what they regarded as "thinking points" in a culture that is instead used to talking point. These "thinking points" are reminiscent of a future where harsh binaries merge and transform into a visual spectacle. Their aim is to produce works that communicate both earthly travesty and phenomenal escape. The work engenders a visual narrative that engages the viewer and prompts them to reflect on the phenomenal conventions they hold to be true. Think Tank sees their work as they would expect to see the walls of a future urban metropolis where the blending of organic and digital, highlight the absurdity of "progress".
