Amber 2008, acrylic on canvas
William Betts explores the sociological and philosophical implications of surveillance in contemporary society with this series of paintings that are based on found and staged surveillance and come from a variety of sources. With few specific visual clues other than the time stamp, the work relies on a unique perspective and presents ambiguity and anonymity as its subject to draw the viewer into a vague and questioning environment.
