Michael Williams — Code Nude
Michael Williams

Code Nude

2011

Michael Williams's *Code Nude* is a dynamic oil and airbrush on canvas work that merges gestural figuration with the fragmented visual language of digital culture. Williams layers loosely rendered forms with text, symbols, and graphic elements, creating a surface that feels simultaneously analog and algorithmic. The interplay between the physicality of oil paint and the sleek precision of airbrushing reflects his ongoing exploration of how meaning is constructed and decoded in the modern age.
