Artscope 52, September/October 2014
art: Visitors
artist: Joey Mars
medium: acrylic, oil stick, enamel, and collage on canvas
theme: Surrealism
Using drawing, painting and collage, I create and slice up fragments of time, nature and experience then assemble them in a flow of fact and fiction. As in dreams, anything is possible. Images are often related, grafted and spring from the previous. I often go in after and further cut up and rearrange the objects, words and backgrounds, creating further meaning and understanding of the information.
