James Fugett: From Inside My ShellThe Pigment Gallery @ Mellwood Art Center

ARTIST STATEMENT:
"I’ve been creating art my whole life from short stories, music, poetry, photography, and painting. I try to disconnect from the filtered world into my shell. Once isolated I throw paint and dance with the canvas while they’re still wet. Someone somewhere can relate to the movements it takes to make each piece.
Life’s chaos sometimes pulls you away from your peace. I rediscovered mine painting porcelain with my baby brother, Noel. After publishing a book of poetry I returned to canvas and acrylics, using my apartment as a gallery/studio. I find that the words we use to express feelings and thoughts don’t always relay the message. In certain situations, it’s difficult to even pinpoint what emotion you feel, colors do that for me. I like for the colors to clash instead of people… And as far as technique, I learned the rules to ensure I broke them."
