Ron Scott interviews painter Chris Hyndman on the occasion of his solo exhibition Susanne Hilberry Gallery, Michigan, on view through March 30, 2013.

Hyndman comments: "I’m very interested in digital surfaces, screen technology surfaces, and the way they give us imagery. They have a particular kind of texture, color, and a thinness, which produces a kind of intensity, but also a frailty... Although my work is grounded in many respects in digital technology — I couldn’t make these paintings without it — I’m also skeptical of it. I don’t have an endless belief in it. So, larger but at the same time lighter and fragile."
