Shopper's Paradise

About the Item

Thomas Deaton (b. 1988), a contemporary artist with a background in printmaking and drawing, explores hidden stories of beauty set against the backdrop of forgotten neighborhoods in his recent body of work. Drawing inspiration from his personal memories, history, and life in New Orleans, Deaton constructs a mesmerizing perspective of life in the southern coastal urban landscape. In his narrative cityscapes, Deaton captures snapshots of neighborhoods on the brink of decay, contrasted by vivid sunsets and lush vegetation. These areas, perpetually submerged in a metaphorical flood, symbolize the overlooked and neglected aspects of urban life. Sinkholes devour houses and backyards, while lone pedestrians seek solace under dimly lit streetlights, obscured by a burgeoning canopy of lush foliage.
