Modes and Monikers

Podgorny, Zachary Z.

Abstract Details

2011, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, Art.
My work reflects the various modes of making in which I engage: painting and drawing, alongside playing of the violin, cooking, impromptu rhyming in English and Russian, the manipulation of recorded sounds, the movement of my body, and collaborating with other artists, musicians and dancers. I investigate the material narrative that takes place in my painting and drawing. This includes the marinating and cooking of different oils, pigments, and balsams as they are applied to different kinds of surfaces. Recently I have painted on linen, plastic shower curtains, window curtains, blankets, fencing, different types of paper, and most recently dry wall. I believe that an engagement with these surfaces inform the way I approach my painting. I believe that the kind of play, thinking, and processing that takes place in my painting is reflected in my other approaches to making. I have assumed different personae. These personas have been named. These monikers are attributed to each mode of making.
