Jeff Brown artwork found objects "Six Feet Under" Uniqiue and Original

Description

I specialize in unique found object assemblage art.  I have work in the permanent collection of the Harwood Museum of Art in Taos, NM and The Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center in Colorado.  I have been in art exhibits too numerous to mention here from California to North Carolina and especially in the Western U.S.  I would be happy to send you my resume upon request.  This is a unique and one of a kind piece. I
received my MFA from the University of Guanajuato in Mexico, and my Master of Art Education at the Hartford Art School in Connecticut. I earned a BFA degree from the Maryland Institute, College of Art in Baltimore.
Artist statement:
"Discarded bits of cultural ephemera, lost artifacts, corroded materials and time-worn weathered surfaces and patinas, evidence of nature's ravaging effects-- these are the particularly romantic and exotic sources that inspire my work. Many of my pieces are nostalgic and reminiscent of once-significant objects, often from my own childhood; a Cracker Jack toy ‘surprise,’ a discarded lead soldier or a fragment of foreign paper currency. The aesthetic criteria for a found object's inclusion in my assemblage or collage is its venerable sense of time, wear and use with a feeling of origins from another time or far-away place. I'm after a sense of familiarity mixed with a feeling of rebirth and even a reaction of challenge or mystery with that which we would otherwise feel comfortable... that, and a purely aesthetic combination of materials, objects, and original artwork."
