The internet grants us unprecedented access to one another while causing us to feel isolated and estranged from our physical reality. As digital technologies have become inseparable from everyday life, our experience of the world and ourselves is increasingly shaped through layers of mediation. We work remotely, encounter art through screens, maintain relationships across networks, and rely on digital archives to construct and remember our personal histories.This event gives you the opportunity to meet the artist and learn more about him and his work, while viewing the artist’s current exhibit at the Triton Museum of Art.This event is free and open to the public (including free parking).Artist Biography:Tim Guan is an American-born painter living and working in San Francisco. Though he has been making art for as long as he can remember, he found his way to a committed art practice during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2025 he left his career in tech to devote himself to painting full time.Tim’s background in technology and life in San Francisco have shaped his artistic point of view. He is interested in the social and cultural conditions we create through our collective obsession with innovation and progress, and in how those conditions influence the way we navigate our reality and relate to one another. As a resident of the Bay Area for over a decade, he has borne witness to tremendous transformations of public and private life. And as a former "true believer" in the promises of the tech sector, he uses painting to wrestle with complicated feelings about his own complicity in those transformations.Working figuratively in oil, Tim is particularly drawn to painting because of its ability to hold a material record of human time and energy in a two-dimensional object. His direct encounters with great works from art history have shown him the medium’s power to communicate care and attention across time and space.Against the relentless speed and chaos of modern life, he views this kind of “slow” connection as radical and necessary to preserve our humanity. He aspires to take part in this tradition by making attentive, resonant work that both reflects what it’s like to be alive today and inspires questions about where we’re headed.Tim studied painting at Studio Escalier in Argenton-Château, France. His work has been exhibited around the Bay Area at Wessling Contemporary, Decentered Arts Studio, The Drawing Room, Rosebud Gallery, and the Triton Museum of Art.
