Sturgill currently lives and works in New Orleans, Louisiana. Inspired by the bedroom communities of Mid-America, my work examines the conflict between our behavior in our most intimate moments and our desire to appear as ambassadors of a white-picket-fence America. Using materials sourced from the suburban landscape, such as paint chip samples from Home Depot and clothing from the all-American company Ralph Lauren, along with imagery and text appropriated from the Casual Encounters section of Craigslist, my work explores the dichotomy between public persona and private behavior. My paintings, sculptures and mosaics use the vernacular of the American heartland to scratch the surface of suburban pretense, exploring the compulsion to veil ourselves behind the façade of a commoditized version of the American Dream.

  • About hope and other issues that I ain’t left behind.
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    Elio Jesús says of his work… My work is a poetic research about the fragility of human nature. In that sense, I ́ve been working on a series of “reconstructed drawings” that blur the boundaries between painting and sculpture. Taken as a whole, these pieces could be an expression of our existence: fragmented and incomplete, lacking something we ́re searching for. ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ Born 1994 in Camagüey, Cuba, Elio Jesús is a visual artist based in Havana whose work addresses the fragility of human nature. Graduated from the University of the Arts of Havana, Cuba 2019; Elio has personal and collective exhibitions in the USA, Spain, Portugal and Mexico, presenting his work at relevant events such as ARCO-Madrid Art...
