JON DENARO – SOUL SHAPED DEVOLUTION
Artist:
Jon Denaro
Location:
subiaco
Soul Shaped Devolution presents a fusion of evolutionary, critical, and dissociative dissonance - an awareness of evolution, culturally and even industrially.
If we are all ants, then what is the nest up to?
For me, being an artist means acting as a catalyst, an amplifier of physiological awareness and a builder of psychological tools. My sculpture and painting are a collaging of moments, layered figuration, shapes, and gestures. My process is driven by an urge to make, however I am more intrinsically drawn to repair. Reconstruction and deconstruction are not chaos; they are a method.
I do not aim for easy comprehension. Instead, I navigate a journey of discovery - revealing, concealing, exposing relationships. Perhaps I am attempting to connect to, or play within, a biological self. I create incomprehensible totems from this mindset, an unscientific recipe book of building and rebuilding.
