Seth Alnwick
[BFA] Studio Art – Painting
My paintings are inspired by themes found in psychological horror movies. Creating up-close cropped images of people in distress and discomfort, I use states of fear and panic to create representation for my own anxieties. In my practice, I gather images from digital archives to use as references. I then translate them into a range of colors, monochromatic to naturalistic. When painting I take liberties in color and how I express the form of the figure to heighten interest.
