Tom Hill, one of the featured artists in our October exhibition, Perspective: A Fresh Look at Contemporary Painting and Drawing, discusses his work “Rustic Touch”:
“I am drawn to lurid, flashy colors applied with layers of paint and glitter and images lifted from advertising and erotica. My work is infused with a queer and feminist sensibility that focuses on my experience with bodies that have been devalued, discarded, and despised. I use art as a vehicle to push the traditional boundaries of beauty, morality, and respectability.”
