ABOUT ME
For artist Chris Wood, poetry and art express a deeper self: the part that looks inward for meaning and connection. The artist's vivid, visual poetry sheds light on human emotions. Fear, anger, sorrow, doubt, love, hope and joy each play a part in a lifelong journey. Through his work, the artist shares what has impacted him the most in life: in both big and small ways. Through meditative moments, the artist is able to make a connection to a greater, more universal consciousness.
In his mixed-media work, Wood uses collage, paint, charcoal and colored pencil to express the intuitive impulses that guide him through the creative process. Expressive marks, abstractions, symbols and letterforms speak to the viewer on both a conscious and subconscious level to make a deeper, more lasting connection. When interacting with the artist's work, Wood wants the viewer to know they are not alone.
