About the Artist:
Charles Jupiter Hamilton is best known for his energetic, highly expressive acrylic canvases, hand-built sculptures, carved and painted wooden wall reliefs, and self-pulled wood block prints. His work meticulously fills empty space with dots, swirls, and other design elements. A simplified analysis would describe his style as a cross between psychedelic art of the 1960s and the work of indigenous tribal art such as that of aboriginal peoples of Austrialia. In fact, his work has been referred to as "new world primitivism." His sculptures often incorporate colorful marbles and other found materials. Each work is a narrative to a degree, and often autobiographical. His art includes interesting perspectives such as birds-eye views that compress a wide area of territory into a single image, whether it is a room full of people, a baseball diamond, or an entire town. This unique perspective is the first clue that one is seeing the world filtererd through the eyes of a visionary artist.
