Love | Photography | 28 x 20

Cory Graham | Stanton, KY @corygraham79 Isolation and plague have washed over the world, limiting artists and individuals to the quiet madness of life in captivity. For many, that captivity is not a time to learn to bake bread or enjoy a family, but rather a loss of self and descent into despair.

Featured Artist | Atom Hovhanesyan

I developed and refined my Post Divisionist style and technique in a series of paintings of women and landscapes. My goal was to utilize the entire surface of the canvas to challenge the viewer’s perception of negative space while borrowing from the Cubist approach to composition. Figures and forms are woven into the fabric of the plane so that space warps into figures and form. The juxtaposition of complimentary colors of thinly applied brushstrokes, over each other, creates a mesh-like pattern, so that figures rise or recede, at times becoming almost invisible.
