Artist Statement:
My Statement By John Albert
Bonnel
The Bent Collector Of One
Thousand Limbs
I prefer the look
of things that are made by
hand. I just believe in taking
a grassroots approach in
everything in life. Music is
an inspiration. Artistic,
primitive, and important for
me to live happy. I try to
create a demented form of
folk/pop art. Something that
has a sense of humor, exposing
heart and dysfunction in small
town.
I create with my
hands. I screen print on
fabric, I draw and smudge on
butcher paper. I carve into
linoleum. I cut and paste. I
splatter spill and recycle. I
use other people's hands. I
use telephone poles, t-shirts,
album covers and tattoos to
display my art.
I want to create
art that looks like Velvet
Underground sounds. I want to
show, in each piece, how much
I love creating it, with Joe's
warts and all.
