ARTIST'S STATEMENT

James Schenck(°1978) is a Cincinnati born, New York educated and Los Angeles raised artist. He received his BA from Vassar College and his MFA from University of Cincinnati College of Design, Art, Architecture, and Planning.

Through both 2-D visual art and installation, Schenck addresses the conditions of the gay male, as well as the role society plays in the construction of identity. The artist’s body of work articulates tactile and gestural expressions of self-examination, the importance of visual balance and clarity, and the numbness in a daily life’s journey for approval.

Schenck summarizes the results of his process as “2-D performance.” The aesthetic should always feel fun and welcoming, while the undercurrent stems from an urgent, honest insecurity.
