About
Otis Swain is a mixed media artist who’s works reside somewhere on the outskirts of Pop Art. Utilizing the found image techniques of collage & image appropriation, he aims to transform his findings into some type of new nostalgic narrative. Currently the work has been following his aesthetic attractions through the shrubbery into a type of ‘Tropic Noir’ setting. We find imagery laced with connotations centered around the ideas of escape, male ego, obsession and mystery. Swain was recently quoted as saying, “I’m just simply into making what I want to see. Exploring my own intuition, and embracing my own strange.”
