Navigating multiple mediums - moving from postgraduate studies in economic theory to a career as an internationally lauded photographer, conceptual new media artist and composer, canadian R. Scott MacLeay's career is richly varied. His artworks are marked by controlled yet spontaneous abstractions, stirred by his fascination for the unpredictability of interference, as he juxtaposes often-fragmented layers of figurative content, textures and colors. Embodying ambiguity, doubt, and contradiction, his creations prompt an intimate exploration of the human condition not always rooted in comfort, but instead in the provocative realm of artistic discomfort. His work focuses on exploring evolving enigmatic situations of everyday life rather than capturing decisive moments, a concept he finds fortuitous and largely aesthetically motivated in photographic work. He lives and works by the motto "If you know precisely where you are going ... change course".
