An alternative art space is a perfect setting to view Joey Feldman’s current solo exhibition “Of An Infinite Solitude”. Informed by his outsider background, love of comics and drawing, loss, addiction and ultimate recovery, he was inspired by the work of Ralph Steadman, Picasso and the Abstract Expressionist movement. Formal art training was never an option for Feldman, but his drive for visual expression kept him focused and evolving. Like his paintings, Feldman’s successful career is a result of happenstance, intuition, and diligent work habits. His approach, career path, and resulting work melds contemporary culture with his personal challenges into a relatable visual experience overlaid with his own brand of witty humor.
Feldman’s process starts with pours, splashes, and marks until the surface feels right to him. From this complex and rich understructure, forms take shape, guided by intuition and reaction. He often sets the painting aside for some time in order to see it with a fresh point of view when he returns for another painting session- allowing the work to evolve with a life of its own.
Artist: joey FeldMaN
Only child. Problem kid. Outlier. Obsessed with monsters, Marvel comics and
scribbling. He first picked up a pen at 8 years old and has not put it down since. Completely
self-taught, this passion led him first to comic book art then illustration and
interior design until he landed where he is now. By choice, still an outlier to this day, Joey now lives in Los Angeles where he paints every single day.
