Artist Statement:
In the same way that poetic language gains meaning through distillation, imagery also becomes more potent when extracted from the collective consciousness and re-contextualized. It is in isolation that these iconic and archetypal images become part of the poem, imbued with supplementary meaning.

| Your Personal Biography |
Joshua Field is known for poetically driven narrative paintings that are at once iconic, psychological and subversive. Arrays of archetypical imagery culled from both the collective consciousness and the realm of the intensely personal suggest both sociological issues and mythic individual dramas. Field has exhibited nationally and internationally and is currently represented by Kolok Gallery. He lives and works in North Adams, Massachusetts and holds a degree from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, Maryland. |
