Joseph Elliott

Joseph Elliott’s work begins with photographic images of the body but refuses their clarity. Using compression artefacts, pixel displacement and layered interference, he interrupts the resolution normally expected from representations of nudity.

Rather than concealing the body, these interventions reposition it. Skin becomes structure. Resolution replaces surface. The body remains visible but cannot be consumed in a single glance.

The resulting works explore what happens when touchable bodies enter systems designed only to process information.

Across his work, resolution replaces surface and visibility becomes provisional rather than fixed. The body remains present, but never entirely available.
