About the Item
Oil on plexiglass
Oil, acrylic, glitter on panel
Dimitri operates from the idea of the “unfinished.” It informs his choice of materials and the way he handles them. It informs the imagery. The unfinished is his first instinct of painting.
There are social-political implications: Democracy is an unfinished project. Enlightenment values are in jeopardy. The biosphere is unraveling. But art has big-picture messages for us.
Dimitri has received fellowships in painting from the Vermont Studio Center and the RI State Council on the Arts. A staff illustrator for The Rumpus and a cartoonist for Entropy magazine, Dimitri has also contributed drawings to the Kenyon Review, Bomb Magazine, and the streets of Providence, RI. His book "Moglie & the New Planet" was a finalist in the 2018 Fence Prize for Children's Fiction. Two of his climate change graph paintings are in the Boston Public Library collection.
His Hello Mussolini series can be found on Tumblr, while additional work is catalogued at his website, Sootghost.
Some of his works are similar to Chris Martin, Ebony G. Paterson, Jean-Michel Basquiat
