lascivious wolf

April 18, 2009

…though my intention was not to specifically investigate the meanings and implications of what make a space a space, or a neighborhood a neighborhood, my work inevitably responds to my environment.  Fascinated by the layers of visual information that cover our world, I investigate, cull, research, dissect, inflate, translate, synthesize, hybridize, cannibalize, slice, dice, chop, and julienne the images and objects I see.  This has long been a basis to my research.  There are 2 pics; one is the progress I am making on a large wall painting in the studio space, the other is a new graphic I drew as part of a collection of icons I have developed over the last 8 years.  These icons are inspired by the weird array of signs, logos and branding I find our current visual culture invested with.  I have drawn nearly 500 of them and the number continues to grow, as you can see the construction in the neighborhood may be of some influence.lascivious wolfturtlehat
