Thomas Lucas, Chicago, IL, When We Collide Serigraph

Artists may be receivers of cultural input who reinterpret that input to create new contexts for it. When successful, the view is moved in some way—positively or negatively—to think, feel, act or simply become opened up to something new.
I am concerned with the formal organization of pictorial space: the interrelationships of line, shape, color value, texture and space, developed in a manner that gives my work both an analytical and an emotional quality. I am also interested in duality: rational and intuitive, urban and rural, planar and spatial, hot and cold, dull and shiny, abstract and concrete, mechanical and natural.
