Artist Statement for Sam Smith
|
|
|
Art is the process through which I may find personal expression, life on the other side of the lens but the palette from which I gain insight. The kind of insight used to uncover that part of myself which lie nine tenths below the surface…the sub conscious. Every particle that become conscious is an additional tool for further, and more insightful, investigations. If the results of this effort aesthetically resinate and are thoughtful, these works may even have value for others. Thanx for listening…now creatively look.
I've been living/working in the E. Village of N.Y.C. for some 20+ yrs., am currently producing a series of foto-works, 'Synergies of Confluence', an architecturally inspired vision. Having sucessfully survived my adolescence in Batimore, MD, where I received a BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art, 70. Graphic design/fotography are the media which are primary to my efforts, though I engage drawing from time to time. Came to N.Y.C. (77) to live, work & further photographic studies at the International Center of Photography. Later I began a two and a half yr. sojourn at the Art Students League, focusing on anatomy and life drawing. After realizing the digital gap had to be bridged, I became digitized at the School of Visual Arts, N.Y.C. Foto-works taken into the permanent collections at the New York Public Library - Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture and the Museum of The History of Photography - Krakow, Poland.
