“Steady Diet of Nothing”, Pete Rangel (US)

About the artist:

The strong, dark and naive figures of Pete Rangel are almost reminiscent of ritual and ceremonial masks. Rangel takes an anthropological approach in depicting his twisted figures, that in their simplicity are the storytelling element of the work. The woodcuts have a childlike and spontaneous quality that reminds us why folk art survived.

“on the road #21”, Hyun-Jin Kim (TH) | HYKI 032/0921/5

Coexisting figures create gaps and borders of color, much like torn paper. The abstract compositions seem to be the result of a quick process. However, in order to achieve this effect, the process of creation and color layering is well thought through and very morose.
