Taking memories of the details of his favourite cinema growing up in San Francisco, Christchurch New Zealand based artist Mark Soltero creates hauntingly beautiful contemporary abstract art that combines repetition of pattern with a deep fascination for the way that art can embody universal memory. This piece, an elegant mirrored pattern using a cinema setting in abstraction, is at once striking for its simplicity and moving in its pathos.
