Corporate Uncanny: Paintings and Installations by Stephanie Wilson

Australian artist Stephanie Wilson produces paintings and coordinated installations about contemporary corporate spaces.
Her images show alienating interiors, waiting rooms and entrances without any contact with the exterior space, corners of rooms inhabited by generically modern pieces of furniture and interior plants. Several tricks are applied in order to evoke an uncanny feeling: inaccurate perspectives and lighting, unusual color schemes. A further sense of displacement is given by Wilson’s installations which recreate in three dimensions a painted interior where the painting itself becomes an ornamental component of the same room it represents.
