Tyler Bewley _ California
Growing up in the Bay Area, I spent much of my youth exploring the expansive and diverse landscapes of rural California. After residing in San Francisco for a number of years, I am constantly made aware of the tension that exists between man, nature and development.
My work is inspired by the state of the natural environment, urban American life, the proliferation of commercial growth, and the human proclivity to develop and dominate our surroundings. My images are creations of fantasy drawn from industrial, natural, political, and local sources. Through works on paper and wood, utilizing watercolor, gouache, acrylic and ink, my art conveys a message of urgency about the state of man and nature, and explores the adaptations and challenges of future generations as they attempt to cope in a changing post-climate world. I use my work as a lens to provide the viewer with a new way in which to think and reflect upon these challenging issues.
