ARTIST STATEMENT

Like you, I am simply a human being trying to understand the insanity of the world I was born into. Like many of my fellow humans, I have had to deal with issues like politics in 2024, love, marriage, children, joy, fear, pain, divorce, covid, death, severe panic attacks, the epic struggles of life as a mid-level bureaucrat, etc.

The objects and images that I create are tangible responses to the issues and ideas that I am trying to understand. For me, the creative act and the process of making is always a learning experience and quite often the object or image that I create changes me as much as I change it.

Our guest artist Everett Mayo is celebrating St. Patricks day with CMAC by continuing his exhibition “Pan American Corazon” stop in and see if you can find this painting “True Green” in the collection. city Market Artist Collective, 300 A Blake street, Historic City Market Raleigh.
