A JK Family Event at MOMA

JK in MoMA (5).jpg

I love taking out my entire JK family of colleagues and friends to enjoy some of the best that this beautiful city has to offer - especially in terms of art. As someone who considers himself an artist within the field of oral design, I am committed to continuously being inspired by the beauty around us and I want my JK family to have that opportunity as well - lucky for me that NYC is a mecca of some of the most influential art in the world.

 

That's why this past weekend I took everyone to the MOMA exhibit "Scenes for a New Heritage: Contemporary Art from the Collection." The exhibit is a " cross-medium selection of works, created in the past three decades by more than 30 international artists, represents a wide range of approaches to the political, social, and cultural flux that have shaped the current global landscape."

It was a wonderful day filled with friends, family and inspiring art. I recommend any of you in the NYC area go check it out!

His works including Late Afternoon and Drift 2013 have been placed all over the lab and they are both beautiful and haunting. An interesting look at the urban world around us here in NYC and beyond.

Artist's Note

My art is borne after several different procedures.

I make wood frames before anything, then cover them with a collage of newspapers.

The frames then become my canvas. The frames are then painted over, and

finalized by combining with ceramic pieces.

Wood, clay, metal and paper, materials I usually use, are eco-friendly media we

have played with in our childhood. I return to a youthful consciousness and play

with wood, clay and paper in a small studio in a large city.

Frames are made to look like images of nature. On them I collage newspapers from

many countries that tell us events from the real world; during which I

sometimes reveal the dark sides of life, expose politicians who are shrouded in lies
