************************************************************* - karl addison ************************************************************* Check Out My Other Sites: ************************************************************* http://www.idrawalot.com/ http://www.partybots.org/ ************************************************************* As Karl Addison�s art and vision evolves�from blank slate, to pen, to paper, to t-shirt, to mural, to installation, to unoccupied public space�so does our understanding and comprehension of the world around us. We may not notice his input, infiltrating our subconscious�our everyday�but it�s there. Negative space filled with a lonely boy�s heart of bricks, a surprise polar bear attack in an alley famous for its gum wall graffiti, and a giant squid eating an octopus, giving lush tones of deep blue and magnetic orange to an otherwise dismal neighborhood. Addison�s art is everywhere, following us wherever we go, whether we know it or not. His purpose (it seems) is three-fold: to amuse us the first time we discover one of his pieces, to draw us in�inviting us to take a closer look, and to make us stop and see every minute detail�and in a sense, to stop and see him. He wants us to value his tiny lines, his details, to appreciate his world-view and hopefully, start extolling the tiny details in our own lives. ************************************************************* It takes an extraordinary person, one with talent, courage, and patience, to express himself the way Addison does. To project his voice and vision for the world to see�to rip it out of a sketch book or a blank page in his mind�and actualize it. To take it beyond the two-dimensional and spray paint, wheat paste, bomb, the side of a building with a prodigious piece of art. To exhibit in public space�on walls, on clothing, on album covers, in art galleries�what a beautiful fucking thing. Graffiti��a new mode of obtaining power of mind over mind� leaving the watching to the watched. ************************************************************* - written by jennifer weitman
