Robert Paris
Artist Statement
My portfolio expresses my love for 80's era poster design, design that was raw and in your face. My inspiration is found in the DIY attitude/emotion that old skate magazines and punk posters explode with. The feeling of "doing it yourself" resonates with the person I am. In my work, I like to use analog techniques like shooting and developing film, running an image through a printer with low ink, and collage work. I enjoy doing things the DIY way, it feels genuine, DIY brings me peace.
