Description
Jason Felix is a multi-faceted artist whose work walks the fine line between hyperrealism and surrealism. Felix melds traditional techniques of drawing and painting with modern-day camera and computer technology. The resulting artwork holds opposing mediums in continuous tension, yet still manages to achieve unlikely harmony. Salvaged takes the viewer into the depths of Felix's imagination. He offers us human bodies collaged and refashioned with industrial elements. He alludes to a level of interplay between man and machine and that both shocks and intrigues. Felix's work, rife with disparate components, is challenging, visually captivating and relevant to our times.
