Brett Stuart Wilson
Brett’s intention is to create constructional portraits that are as unconventional as the maverick musicians he fashions. These musicians have been inspirational in all genres of Music in the past and present and he wishes to document music history by immortalizing their faces. The portraits are larger than life which is synonymous with the musicians’ huge contributions of laying down new sound. He builds his own abstract tension by spontaneously layering and painting a depth of found materials to adjoining flat surfaces to form a kind of illusion. Constructed, built-out, painted and intended to be viewed from the front, it leaves the profile to be anything from bas-relief to a twisted tension of facial features. He revels in the unpredictability and the unease of the angles, stating that it is much like a musician and artists life. His personal goal is to continue manipulating portraits and documenting musician history because there are many more faces to be remembered.
