Castaways: The Art of Assemblage

This exhibition includes three artists: Amy Terry, Angela Teeter and Aaron Jones. We all work in the art form of assemblage, but with very distinct styles.

I identify as an expressive, tinkering, process artist. My approach to creating is non-traditional. I collect found objects, such as bones, fragments of machinery, and broken/ orphaned pieces of all things strange and unusual. I curate and combine the objects to create something interesting and novel. I take inspiration from nature, spirituality and folklore from all cultures, history, scientific experiments, tattooing, Gothic literature and aesthetics, as well as cinema, specifically classic horror and Sci-Fi films.

Creative influences: Albert Pinkham Ryder, Henry Fuseli, H.R. Giger, Tom Savini, and Bert Long Jr.

My Heroes: Fred Rogers, Steve Irwin, and Bob Ross.
