"Enda O’Donoghue is a twenty-first century version of a process painter. His artwork distills the essence of digital communication in images that reflect the transfer of information along the information chain. Working from his studio in Berlin, O’Donoghue seeks out images in the public domain that are then treated to a labour-intensive series of manipulations – each of which being encoded into his visual image that slowly becomes the final painting."
Regina Gleeson, 2006
