Working in mixed media and ceramic, Roy Kortick creates highly individual landscapes of dense painterly symbolism and phantasmagoric patterns. Using a technique of transforming raw elements, such as resin, Styrofoam, fresco, pigments and clay into paintings, Kortick creates work that conveys a strong sense of past histories and narrative depth. Diverse in both medium and subject matter, Kortick manages to effectively combine high and low art in a unique and potent way.
