Nic Coviello (Philadephia)

"My work is motivated by the life affirming activities of creating visual responses to the lines, forms and rhythms of the physical world around me.

I combine new and traditional technologies, often on the same multilayered image, as a way to replicate the observations, thoughts and recollections that drives the work. This multi-layered process helps me to find personal ways to regenerate visually the ephemeral and graphic qualities of found objects (relics) and random sights that capture my attention and provide those prized moments that follow a new discovery.

Finding and collecting plant-life debris, from natural or planned shedding, and bringing new life to its form, mimics in a simple but profound way, the extraordinary gift of life (a cadaver kidney transplant) that will forever repurpose my artmaking."
