Andre Kessler

"I grew up watching my dad make art in the studio. Often I made drawings and paintings alongside of him. Over time I assisted him in the studio building panels, stretching canvases, and organizing tools.

 

We attended openings together and visited museums and galleries. We spent many hours discussing art. It is only natural that I am now making my own paintings. My work is similar but also quite different from his. For one thing I am more interested in pattern[s] and repeating shapes. Sacred geometry also serves as a rich reservoir of inspiration for my artwork. My involvement with electronic music also informs my painting process. At this point I’m just 23 years old so I’m very much at the beginning of my art development. It is extremely exciting to be embarking on my artistic journey."
