Over the last 25 years, Bill Armstrong has pioneered the unique approach of blurring appropriated images—a medium at the intersection of photography, painting and collage.

All a Blur presents some 300 pulsating color images that offer alternate visions of history, religion and philosophy. Armstrong’s photographs range from mysterious falling figures sourced from the Renaissance to vibrating color spheres akin to Buddhist mandalas. He transforms these into hypnotic visual objects in a volume that is both aesthetically rewarding and a potential pathway to heightened awareness.
