Devin Abrams grew up in Oakale, NY, and graduated from Temple University in Philadelphia in 2001. Since then, he has traveled the country producing art inspired by the most abstract details and vagaries of experience and thought. Colorful, organic, acrylic on hand stretched canvas. Having lived off and on in New Orleans for several years now, he is currently endeavoring to bring this art to a wider audience. Some of his Artist inspirations include Constantin Bracusi, Edgar Degas, Hieronymus Bosch and Wassily Kandinsky.
“These pieces are not impressionist abstracted representations of objects, landscapes, and people; rather, they are delicately balanced expressions of nearly abstract feelings, where moments of inspiration and fragments of music are realized in detail. These unanalyzed forms and flow allow the freedom to create an individual interpretation with a personal vocabulary; and therefore, engage an audience who can feel the underlying energy and emotion of the artwork in its own way.” – Devin Abrams

“The subject matter is best described as a juxtaposition of reality and fantasy, or even the inherent relationship between day dreams and lucid dreams. Opposites exist in their counterparts and meaning depends on their absence of presence.” – Devin Abrams
