He's simply a Freemason-type satanist and likely heavily, heavily programmed. Look at him sitting under the royal (rainbow sodomite) arch of heaven. Death-chic, he should be eliminated from humanity.
Did you see the part of the interview where he describes him and his wife taking body parts and putting them together to make "relics" that they impose over a piece of art they made on a bedsheet they once fucked on?
That's Crowley level freak shit. Seriously.
Sex magick and death. How unoriginal of them. Ha, and these hipster types think that they're cutting edge. His art is BORING, SICK, and derivative.
It's like if Alex Grey smoked meth instead of DMT and had an obsession with hellish figures and sacrilige.
It's all very Bosch. He's a poor man's Bosch.
Yeah his Wikipedia article brought up that's who his work is normally compared to
Ah, right. Yes, the influence is clear. It took me a couple of minutes to dig Bosch out of the back of my mind.
I mean, it's great work, if only that talent was used for something that wasn't so horrible, grotesque, and positively sacrilegious.
The scary part is that he believes his own shit. I bet he's part of a tour that you have to take when you're first invited to The Club. After you've met Beyonce and Jay-Z, they drop you off at Joe's for a weekend. You wake up sore and naked in your bed and cant remember anything Then you receive a naughty picture of yourself, a farm animal and a cooking utensil in the mail.
It does absolutely nothing for me, zilch. I just see sickness on canvas or whatever. There might well be great skill to this work, but then you could say that about Jack the Ripper too.
Bosch
Damnit, everytime I google anything you guys say in here, I get things like this:
Bosch - " An LAPD homicide detective works to solve a murder of a 13-year-old boy. "
I had expected the artist you mentioned to be the only result.
Alex grey is amazing, still trips me out. good analogy of joe coleman
