“I spend a lot of t.mes on Photoshop thinking about how to further manipulate the images to my very specific narrative. Lately, I have been incorporating different materials and textures into the works like an assemblage. I’m always wondering, How do I intensify the drama and make this even more ridiculous?”
—TREY ABDELLA, quoted in Galerie Editors, “Next Big Things: Trey Abdella”, Galerie, 3 December 2021, online

「我在修圖軟件Photoshop上耗費大量時間,思忖如何進一步把圖像代入特定的敘事當中。近來,我還嘗試把各種媒材和質感融冶一爐。我總是不厭其煩地尋找增強戲劇性的方法,從而令作品看起來更加荒謬。」
