This recent work is a visual combination of botanical life and improvised imagery that reference current human and natural events. These paintings may be referred to as “Quasi-Botanical” because they turn toward a traditionally surrealist or lyrical interpretation of the environment using botanical forms metaphorically. Leaves, trees, rhizomes and microorganisms interweave into a dual dimensioned [...]

I am painting the body as vehicle, simple forms with wheels or wings. These forms often appear inflated as with inhaled breath. The background encases these forms in a floating ungrounded space. These car, train, rocketand plane-like forms imply movement yet their energy is still, reflective and contemplative. These forms are single, twinned or shadowed, [...]

To know my work, know that I know what I do. Every mark is there for a reason, exactly as it is. I describe the world as I feel it and as I understand it rationally, in broad strokes. To find the lexicon of my work, look through the filter of modern painting to the [...]
Joseph Meloy (b. 1982, New York City) has coined the term Vandal Expressionism, to tag his personal post-graffiti spin on the abstract expressionism of the 40′s and 50′s. Incorporating some of the more primal elements of graffiti, Vandal Expressionism utilizes the same iconography of damage and intrusion as street art, but turns the calligraphic scribbles [...]
Artist Statement
These works are composed with handmade pigments-a ferromagnetic material which is colored and then cast on linen backed by a magnetic field. Each piece has a unique color play. The paintings have actual magnetic lines that run through the pigments before they are fixed. The resulting image is like a fossil of [...]

I paint the things around us: fruits and vegetables, household items, toys, all the objects of everyday life. I also have a series on candies and their wrappers, focusing on their translucency and reflections. In all these paintings, my emphasis is on light, color, texture and atmosphere.
All paintings are available, except those [...]
