RISD Printmaking 2005 

BrianRHart@gmail.com

My work encompasses printmaking, painting and large scale murals. Recently I have been focusing on image making using CMYK color separation techniques to depict the human form.  Mimicking the aesthetics of traditional printmaking while painting and plotting images, I am able to gain more influence on the finished images while also creating a tension between the mechanical and personal nature of the artwork. Imagery, sourced diversely, is fed through this same process, broken down, rescaled and recombined. As layers of information accumulate, pieces evolve and near abstraction. Revealing themselves sometimes only by forcing the viewer closer or farther away.
