Callie Curry, a.k.a. Swoon

I first saw her wheat pastes in NY, but since then Callie Curry has directed her art to completely different contexts using completely different materials.  And yet it isn't hard to see a continuing theme about the potentials of people's individual interactions.  I love that I got to be a part of her interactions, just by seeing her work around Brooklyn, and then finding that the artist behind the art is moving in such positive directions.
Here she talks about her craft and ideas.  Enjoy!

Nicholas Di Genova

This man lives and works in Toronto, making intensely detailed and awesome art. Focusing on animals that look like Frankenstein-esque experiments in fauna-combination, the images are set in strict and organized chart-like design. The powerful and child-like energy and imagination that exists in such a disciplined setting is what attracts me most, along with great awe for the equally disciplined line work and amount of time his drawings must take. Fantastic!

In his words, "When I was a kid growing up I was obsessed with animals and monsters... I'd draw them everyday, and when I grew up I either wanted to be a zoologist or a monster hunter... When I got a bit older I realized that being a zoologist was less exciting than I had imagined, and that 'monster hunter' isn't even a real job, so I just kept drawing. I pretty much do the exact same thing at 29 years old that I did when I was 9 years old."
