David Wadelton gives a new spin to the term surrealism. Wadelton uses comics, advertising graphics, still life and just about anything that comes to hand, throwing it into a blender and leaving the top open to spray incongruous contrasts and juxtapositions. Recent works utilise computer-based montage. These images take on a manga-like gloss in this new form of cyber-surrealism / popist-postmodernism.
