Aaron Curry’s work fuses a variety of motifs and sources from Surrealism to Pre-Columbian art, graffiti art to digital image. His totemic sculptures, works on paper and collages reflect a kind of prism which defines a new form of appropriation and reference-making. Characterized by a profusion of exuberant colors and shapes, Curry’s style blurs the boundaries by connecting imaginations and worlds, gradually achieving the transformation of one image into an other.
