Oil on canvas.
24x48"
This painting is based on Greco-Roman sculpture and the movie Ghost In The Shell. It continues my theme of breaking things apart and putting them back together in my style of color gradation.
This piece also reflects on the ambition of making surrogates for our elevated systems. Once this was a higher power with deities sculpted out of marble, we now have artificial intelligence systems with the intent to create autonomous entities.
My art education began at Philadelphia High School for the Creative and Performing Arts and then continued at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts.
I am a fine artist with a passion for creating unique and expressive pieces. My goal is to continue developing my style through painting on canvas.
In my career, I have worked with a variety of mediums including paint, charcoal, and digital media and I'm always looking for new ways to challenge myself, push the boundaries of my art, and think outside the box.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
As an artist, I am drawn to the beauty and complexity of nature's classical forms. However, rather than simply traditionally replicating them, I am inspired to transform them with a prismatic color palette and a street art mentality.
My goal is to bring a fresh perspective to the timeless imagery of nature, infusing it with vibrant energy and the dynamic spirit of pop culture. By using a range of bold and bright hues, I aim to enhance the organic lines and shapes of plants, animals, and landscapes, creating a kaleidoscopic array of visual stimuli that captivates and excites the viewer.
But my work is not just about color. I also approach it with a street art mentality, meaning I prioritize accessibility, inclusivity, and social relevance. I want my art to be something that anyone can appreciate and engage with, regardless of their background or level of familiarity with classical nature forms.
I believe that by reimagining nature in this way, I am not only creating something beautiful but also making a statement about the interconnectedness of all things. By blending the natural world with the vibrant energy of the city, I hope to inspire a sense of unity and harmony between seemingly disparate elements and encourage viewers to see the world around them in a new and exciting light.
With the use of classic art forms and the power of beauty and color, my work aims to offer a fresh and exciting perspective that celebrates the wonders of both the natural world and the dynamic pop culture that surrounds us.
