What I'm saying though, is that as a person who generally agrees with all that greentext, I still think the work is weak.

Wanting to be articulate and social within an artistic practice, and speaking in the vernacular of contemporary art isn't inherently bad when the work is good. All those things can really improve the experience, but the work has to live up to the claims.

What I'm seeing here is a quotidian stab at casualist painting that's investigating the ontology of the rectangle. This kind of painting hinges on it's component parts forming more than just a collage, but some kind of previously unknown synergistic relationship. That doesn't seem to be happening here, just looks like some undergrad being cute with "painting as sculpture".
