About the Artwork:

This painting is based on one of my abstract sculptures made from plastic and paper. I use the sculpture as a focal point to engage my waking dream state. I think of the resulting imagery as crystallized hypnagogic imagery which teeters on abstraction while simultaneously evoking the idea of creatures or beings that dwell on an imaginal or supraphysical plane that nontheless shares in the same language of form that we read in Nature. – Greg Pettit

About the Artist:

(Artist Bio)

Austin based artist, Greg Pettit, has been painting in a variety of mediums since 2006, primarily working with airbrushed acrylics since 2016. In Greg’s paintings there is a synthesis of his love for rhythm, pattern, and movement merged with his life-long interest in dream states and observations of the natural world. These influences together toggle the line between representational and abstracted spaces and forms.

His process incorporates sculptural references, photography, and stencil design as a means of developing his painting ideas.

“My compositions are usually determined by narrowing in on some satisfying and unpredictable moment in a still-life set up I’ve created. I collect mundane objects, strip them down and paint them, and reassemble them into novel forms and environments. By decontextualizing my references I free them from any outer meaning or purpose. They function as a surrogate for me to impregnate with my own subconscious language. The objects provide enough in terms of lighting and corporeal form for me to add a sense of realism into what I do that would be harder to arrive at purely out of the imagination. I feel like this process gives me an avenue to explore the rhythmic, patterned structures that underpin natural form and human design, as if our brains urge us to create things that conform to the design principles of nature.”
