You Are Here, by Dave Kinsey is currently showing at Alice Gallery in Brussels. In my humblest of opinion, Kinsey is one of our generations greatest artists whose development has been too often overlooked in the blog-o-spherical white noise of our culture. I mean, just look at that shit, its so mad.

Kinseys newest show is a collection of striking paintings with strong movement complimented by a contrasting pallet of reds and blue. So dope.

“In this series of paintings I explore the chaos and consequence of modern culture and its effects on the human population in terms of personal voids, balance and the uniformity of the individual. I’m specifically interested in cultural adaptation and in perceptions of the necessities of survival, real and magined. I present the figure in a fragmented form to put emphasis on the disembodiment of our true identities using compositions in red to convey a sense of tension and blue to evoke a feeling of balance — in this context, I especially enjoy the fact that these are complementary colors.”
