DICHOTOMY

Featuring 3 series by Aaron Stansberry

Aaron Stansberry is an internationally acclaimed, multidisciplinary artist based in Los Angeles, CA. He characterizes his works as being gritty, filled with texture, vibrant, and often urban in nature. In addition, Stansberry frequently writes poems, lyrics, phrases, speeches, and random thoughts on his canvases before they are enveloped in abstraction. His bold compositions are created using mixed media and a variety of instruments which lend to depth and contrast in his work.

His work has been widely exhibited in a number of national and international publications, such as: LA Magazine - Featured artist, Contemporary Art Curator Magazine - Artist Interview, Bombay Sapphire Artisan Series / Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation - Selected artist, Volume Magazine - Arts in Thailand, and Thai Air Publication. He was also included in A Holiday Heist - Stardust Pictures Feature Film, and is currently on display at hotels, commercial buildings, and private residences throughout the world.

“My life has never been routine. I am a nomad, a wanderer. I have never been grounded, which has allowed me the freedom to explore. I follow this same principle when I paint, so my work is ultimately a simple reflection of who I am. Microcosms of me. My latest collection consists of three distinct series which arose during the pandemic. In one, I use the canvas as an outlet for essentially whatever I need to say at that moment. In the others, I say very little. The dichotomy between these styles mirrors my different states of mind. I allow my work to change with me.and never get trapped in any particular style or genre. Authenticity is imperative, so I use my own experiences as the catalyst for each painting.”
