NUCLEAR WINTER

drawings & paintings by Cincinnati artist

JEFF STOUT

Click on individual photos for a larger expanded view.

: Human Female Walker Toxic Horizon

: Doomed Human Male

: Human Female Into The Mouth

*Complimentary CDs of exhibition soundtrack mixed by the artist

This exhibition is supported by a suggested reading list, for which the books are available at NVISION, where visitors can enjoy a FREE cup of coffee while perusing the show and the Nuclear Winter library.

—

“Part science-fiction fantasy, part environmental warning, and part metaphysical metaphor, these mixed-media pieces are explorations and elaborations of dark themes and mark making. Developed in light, dark, and in-between, these high-contrast pieces were conceived as works to be enjoyed in both the darkness (with some glow-in-the-dark paint) as well as in the light.

“Most of this exploration (made in a cold room) was inspired by a Nuclear Winter Soundtrack that has developed parallel with this body of work. Dark, or aggressive, and/or bleak music has been added to a growing playlist to help fuel this vision.

“Groping forward in the dark has led to some interesting questions:

~ How much of our solipsistic abuse can the environment take?

~ How might some last humans adapt to a no longer submissive environment?

~ What in us (or perhaps what is it that is missing in us, that) allows us to move in the mutually destructive direction both toward our world and our own species?

~ What will it take for us to wake up?” — JEFF STOUT

JEFF STOUT graduated with a BFA in Fine Art/Illustration from the Art Academy of Cincinnati, and has exhibited in several art shows over the years. He has exhibited with Les Ismoore, Ann Dernutherthing, and Artie Fischelshalk. Jeff is a self-righteous hypocrite who drives an old Jeep. Can you believe it? A Jeep! Though he prefers to ride his bicycle.

**ON DISPLAY THROUGH MARCH 21.
