Generally, I am a collage artist. But I've dabbled in other mediums, including ceramics. This may or may not have been my first public installation.

 It took more time to the add materials which prevented damage than it did to build the sculpture. (Or so I heard) #sociallyresponsiblestreetart

Here is one of my completed collages. Title: Protesto 36in.x36in., Turkish newspapers from the 50's and 60's with some American classroom newspapers from the 20's, on a deep canvas. No paint, the red in her scarf is from the masthead of the Turkish papers, Cumhuriyet.    |

I hope to stay in the aspiring section. It's the best label for me, no matter how "successful" this hobby proves to be.
The best is yet to come.

I appreciate the kind words. The last of my Turkish collages is almost done. On to a new theme. Also, more street sculptures are in the works.

Any advice for me in regards to open submissions to a museum? They want resume, artist bio, and description for each piece.

Any advice for me in regards to open submissions to a museum? They want resume, artist bio, and description for each piece. Let the internet do the work for you: Artybollocks generator www.artybollocks.com/And for the biography: www.500letters.org/I hope that helps to free some time for the important things like creating art ... ------ P.S. I tried the bio generator and this is what I came up with for you: Shady Nasty
Shady Nasty (°1980, United States) creates mixed media artworks and sculptures. By emphasising aesthetics, his mixed media artworks references post-colonial theory as well as the avant-garde or the post-modern and the left-wing democratic movement as a form of resistance against the logic of the capitalist market system.
His mixed media artworks sometimes radiate a cold and latent violence. At times, disconcerting beauty emerges. The inherent visual seductiveness, along with the conciseness of the exhibitions, further complicates the reception of their manifold layers of meaning. By demonstrating the omnipresent lingering of a ‘corporate world’, he often creates several practically identical works, upon which thoughts that have apparently just been developed are manifested: notes are made and then crossed out again, ‘mistakes’ are repeated.
His works demonstrate how life extends beyond its own subjective limits and often tells a story about the effects of global cultural interaction over the latter half of the twentieth century. It challenges the binaries we continually reconstruct between Self and Other, between our own ‘cannibal’ and ‘civilized’ selves. By manipulating the viewer to create confusion, he seduces the viewer into a world of ongoing equilibrium and the interval that articulates the stream of daily events. Moments are depicted that only exist to punctuate the human drama in order to clarify our existence and to find poetic meaning in everyday life.
His works are on the one hand touchingly beautiful, on the other hand painfully attractive. Again and again, the artist leaves us orphaned with a mix of conflicting feelings and thoughts. Shady Nasty currently lives and works in Saratosa.

[ The "concise bollocks" is brillant ! What starts out as hope soon becomes debased into a dialectic of defeat, leaving only a sense of failing and the chance of a new order |

Thanks Suit. Classmate has been improved quite a bit. I'll post another pic, along with others I've been working on soon. Fred, I'm stalled on those theatre pieces a bit. I have about 8 still to do! I aim to complete them this month. I'll post pics of those as well. |

(Artist statement, first draft.)
Feel free to criticize, advise, etc...
My name is Shady Nasty, I create mixed media artworks and sculptures. Primarily, I work in the area of collage, using period appropriate ephemera to create works which reflect on the idea of change. The series of works presented here are a sort of love letter to the Turkish spirit of independence.
After working in Istanbul, Turkey for four years in the late 2000’s, I developed a deep respect and admiration for the Turkish people. In the years since I returned to the USA, Turkey has suffered many dramatic, controversial, and tragic events. Throughout this time, I have used vintage Turkish and Ottoman Empire-era newspapers, stamps, currency, and other assorted ephemera to create works of art that comment on these events. The importance of creating these large collages, pouring over time period appropriate materials, has helped me to connect to this complex country in very deep and important ways. The idea of recycling old newspapers to comment on the state of Turkey today, is not unitentional. When we forget the past, we tend to repeat it. It turns out that may be my message with these artworks after all.

(Brief Bio)
Feel free to criticize and advise.
My name is Shady Nasty and for most of my adult life I have been a teacher. I have taught all subjects in grades four through seven, on three continents. I attended high school in Singapore, during the early 1990’s. This global exposure has left an indelible mark on my being. For the past year, I’ve taken a year off from the classroom to pursue my artistic interests. I have allowed myself the time to learn something new. I have never taken a course related to fine arts. I am completely self-taught. It’s like I used to tell my students, “If you spend enough time practicing something, you become a success.” While I’ve never shown my work to people outside my immediate circle of friends and family, I feel successful. When I look at my work, I am so proud of what I learned to do. Being accepted into the Florida Contemporary exhibition at The Baker Museum would change the trajectory of my life.
