BRIAN SCHNEIDER

Brian Schneider is a multi-disciplinary artist from Greenfield, WI. He received his BFA in 2014 from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design and currently creates and shows work at Var Gallery and Studios in Milwaukee. Brian works in drawing, painting, photography, mixed media sculpture and digitally.

My work is first and foremost meditation, a conversation of intuition and contemplative thought. The process of creation is used as a means of introspection, as well as a way to process external experiences. A rhythm develops in this process of making,a rhythm of digging, sifting, marking, placing, pausing, re-placing and reaction.

My work is evolution, seen as individual works and how each piece fits into my body of work as a whole; how it relates; how it deviates. What is meaningful is how the pieces are the same and what is interesting is how they diverge. The spaces can be playful, disturbing, humorous, squirmy, weird, vulnerable, awkward, spiritual, sexual. The images and objects are evoked through the subconscious and so, deal with all of my experiences and emotions.
