Duane Reed Gallery: Thursday, 28 October 2018

Kevin Snipes
Opening Reception Thursday, October 28th 5PM to 8PM

Kevin Snipes’ artwork explores concepts of otherness by employing techniques of figurative narration and craft to form objects that cross the boundary between sculpture and painting. His work is a combination of atypical pottery forms, quirky figurative drawings and contemporary vernacular language. Kevin’s work is influenced by an array of traditional and nontraditional art forms, including street art, architecture, contemporary painting, the avid love of art history and even children’s toys and drawings. His work has an underlying sophistication, which is based in existentialist thought, creating a dynamic body of work that is both culturally transcendent and personally identifiable. Through this use of multi-faceted self referential narratives Snipes challenges the viewer to consider the concept of otherness in confrontation with the self.
