ABOUT CHARLES GROGG
|
Charles Grogg (b.1966, Gary, Indiana) is an American contemporary artist and photographer. He currently resides in southern California where he produces fractured photographic images printed in silver and sewn through or in platinum and palladium on handmade Japanese washi which are restitched into whole images and frequently feature tethers, sutures or other three dimensional productions. The resulting images focus on issues of growth and restraint, hesitation and power.
Grogg's recent work emerges from the early Vik Muniz, from Robert Fichter, Thomas Barrow, and Andy Warhol's sewn multiples, as well as his dedication to cross-disciplinary modalities.
His images have been shown in galleries internationally and published widely in fine art photography periodicals. |
