Jake Stone - New York / Ireland
Tibetan Surf
Spray Paint With Comb Etchings
by Jake Stone - 2002
|
Jake Stone is an intermedia
artist whose work ranges from painting and photography to music and
electronic
media. His contributions to Audart were enormous as he
single-handedly
redesigned interior spaces within the gallery in preparation for each
new
exhibition. He possesses an unusual ability to transform ordinary
objects and nondescript spaces into works of art that are surprisingly
sophisticated, despite his frequent use of utilitarian materials. Stone's paintings are executed
on paper using fast-drying spray paint and a deft ability to blend
colours instantly. Texture is added strategically, using combs
and other tools, before the paint is dry. He is also an excellent
colorist. Jake Stone resides in Ireland
while maintaining close ties to New York City.
