Animal Spirits
Joseph Meloy

Joseph Meloy’s work is an ongoing exploration in mark-making, and each piece is a transcription of a particular moment in time and space. As a visionary artist, Meloy’s source material tends to come from within, as he channels energy and inclination into visible notations, which coalesce into dynamic compositions that provide the viewer a chance to see the otherwise unseeable. Improvisation is a key element, and while he is the one holding the implement, his belief is that ultimately, the art comes from a place beyond himself. Paint first, ask questions later. Then paint more.
