John O'Reilly, After Work

Limited Edition Print of 20
40x50cm

We are proud to present a limited edition digital render from John O’Reilly (JOR), a beautiful, delicate memento to our previous home on Level 5 of Trinity street Car Park. Different segments of the image contain varying sample rates to represent texture. To achieve this effect, the source 3D model is rendered out multiple times, each with a different sample rate. This results in each rendered image having a different level of grain. Segments from each render are extracted and then composited together into a new single image in Photoshop. Shaded areas contain more grain and the brightest area, the sky, is one flat colour.

As a former graffiti artist, O’Reilly’s early subjects were of areas where he often painted graffiti in, including non-pedestrian environments such as the railway and abandoned sites. His work continues to consider the urban landscape even further, presenting banal and marginal exterior spaces. His recent paintings feature monolithic-like environments of asphalt and concrete, of fuel tank farms and car parks.
