Diagnosis by Aaron Martin is a carefully constructed body of paintings in response to a year long residency completed at St Vincent’s hospice palliative care unit in 2010/11. The paintings that result explore human frailty and illness through a disparate collection of plants, objects and other hospital paraphernalia transcribed in a cool and restrained palette. Martin employs a painting technique that describes form through new and often non tradition painterly ways; where structure, composition, individual surfaces, materiality and process are all of equally high importance.
