Purgatory
May 14th through June 2nd, 2004
Purgatory
is comprised of a series of acrylic and ink paintings, with various uses of spray paint. A narration of exaggerated images, and vivid colors, explores the personal perspective of the artist as he illustrates a dark satirical view of society. The artist investigates self and culture, and attempts to capture the purgatorial state, whether between black and white, tragedy and drama, good and evil, or heaven and hell. Using a technique that draws from comic books and graffiti, the artist takes the viewer on a an intense visual journey, one that is both unnerving and reflective of urban American culture at the start of the 21st Century.
Originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota Logik currently residing in New York City.
Logik
, is not just the name the artist writes, but also a studio philosophy that fuses self-study with an underground urban aesthetic.
