Riley Payne - Mad Deep Thoughts Xavier Barral Visual artist Joan van BarneveldTracing the Melbourne artists photorealist graphite renderings of fruit, foliage and figure, Mad Deep Thoughts captures Riley Paynes technical acumen and offbeat humour to equal effect. Comprising uncanny accumulations and pairings of classical forms and Google image search results, Paynes fastidiously realised drawings might be considered in terms of collage. 32 pages, 24cm x 17cm, soft cover, dust jacket, Perimeter Editions (Melbourne).
