ARTIST’S STATEMENT: JACK PACHUTA
The world is a magnificently complex
mixture of color, light, textures and shapes!
Look closely at what's around you and
you'll see a universe of inspiration. Every day you'll find something you
haven’t see before to stimulate your imagination. That's what I do via my
monoprints - I make people see things they might not otherwise see.
When
completing my prints, I take a non-traditional approach to my subject matter.
The people, flora and fauna that provide my artistic inspiration are placed in
unique environments enabling my audiences to see them in new, thought-provoking
lights. The combination of traditional printmaking techniques with the
craftsmanship of pencil and ink renderings creates vibrant, dramatic colors coalescing
around specific textures. Each work, then, tells a story intrinsic to the subject.
When viewing my work, you'll discover
an enhanced reality - tones, hues and shadows that prompt you to go beyond your
existing perspective of what you're truly seeing.
At its core, artist’s challenge is to portray the usual in unusual ways and
to make people see what they might not otherwise see. This is precisely what I
attempt to do. Enjoy your voyage through my artwork and focus on seeing the
world differently!
