cultured carnivores, the art of Clint Carney
Clint Carney is a super creative dude, you may recognize as the frontman for the band 'system syn', his fiction wirting or tattooing, but today's post notes his grotesque art. Carney, a LA based artist paints portraits of people clawing and grasping at themselves. Much like our actual existence, his artwork (perhaps more directly) shows people violently clawing at their deformed flesh in a frenzy. The character's simian attitudes fused with surrealist human form tripplicated and sludged make for inspirational viewing. Although satiric, Carney's works oftentimes project an elegent demure air, as if the subejct is posing for the painting, although many seem candid or even abstract. Carney also recently published a series of serial killer portraits.
