Gold’s work is shaped by his time in Italy as a Fulbright Fellow and his participation in an archaeological project in Cyprus. His practice draws on a wide field of reference: archaeological diagrams, mosaic floors, woven textiles, his own collaged book projects, and the pixel logic of the digital screen. These compositions suggest a continuum where ancient storytelling and contemporary image culture are intertwined threads of the same visual language. Across his surfaces, he stages a dialogue between what is revealed and what remains concealed, between the façade and the guarded interior, inviting viewers to imagine worlds that extend beyond the painting’s edge.

Working with sandy-textured gesso, India ink, egg tempera, and acrylic gouache, Gold builds lustrous, tactile surfaces that shimmer with the illusion of marble, tapestry, and papyrus. These paintings are speculative artifacts, at once futuristic and archaeological, emerging from a process of translation that is deliberate and decidedly human in contrast to the speed of algorithmic pixelation. Infinite Scroll invites us to linger in the pleasure of looking, drifting through color, material, and historical fragments toward each painting’s luminous entirety.
