Joseph Wardwell "Look West"
Heskin Contemporary
This event has ended.
Joe Wardwell’s new paintings combine popular rock lyrics and images from the American West positing a relationship between texts and the landscapes they inhabit and describe. Wardwell taps into the popular imagination by contrasting some of the loudest and heaviest of rock anthems with his open, often infinite landscapes linking this imagery with the established cultural images conjured up by the artist’s selection of song lyrics.
