Jpegs
A monumental digital pigment print by Thomas Ruff from his celebrated *Jpegs* series, in which the artist deliberately enlarges low-resolution internet-sourced images until their compressed pixel blocks become bold, abstract fields of color. The resulting work hovers between photography and digital painting, exposing the underlying data structure of the image and challenging traditional notions of photographic authenticity. Ruff's process transforms visual information into a meditation on how images are constructed, transmitted, and perceived in the digital age.
