Eliza Douglas: GHOSTS reworks paintings exhibited over the past decade at Air de Paris by superimposing manipulated UV prints of selfies taken by her aunt, investigative journalist Leslie Kean, who believes the images contain unexplainable effects. The resulting canvases partially veil existing compositions with enigmatic visual intrusions, creating a cannibalizing ouroboros — Douglas consuming her own prior body of work to produce something new. Long preoccupied with appropriation, doubling, and art's status as consumable good, Douglas here turns those strategies inward, illuminating what Mark Fisher called the endless repackaging of cultural products.
