Brian Huber
My work work is based on the abstraction of landscapes, architectural elements and the impact of man on the natural world. Raised in New Orleans, I was influenced not only by an unconstrained culture and the rhythmic motions of blues and jazz, but also an environment where hurricanes could change or destroy everything.
I transform landscapes and manmade forms into something new. My pieces represent physical changes on a grand scale —anything from the construction of a beautiful building to the devastation of a man-made disaster.
I cut and manipulate giant sheets of acrylic paint to create the distinctively sculptural texture of the pieces. The acrylic skins are treated like fabric and paper as they are cut, folded and draped across the panels.
