Denis Geary Lopez
Artist Statement
I strive to strike a balance between the vibrant and beautiful and the strange and uncomfortable. Black and white are the ongoing struggle we have between Purity and Desire for Power. There is a solemnity in this juxtaposition that gets hazy as they come together. The temptation that makes people like Julius Caesar and Napoleon want to become Gods; it is both wicked and ultra pure.
My work serves to be a roadmap to embracing the heavens. Our species is at an inflection point - between our nuclear Sword of Damocles, the deluge of climate change, and the perennial specter of nationalism, humanity has a choice to make in the coming years. Now is the time to choose evolution and to become Gods and Angels and create a world free from war, from poverty: a race that overrides the cruelties of nature itself. .
