Christopher Stangler

Medium(s): Collage, Mixed Media, Painting, Photography, Sculpture, Fiber

Summary/Artist Statement:

The landscape of my immediate environment provides the raw material and inspiration in my mixed media works. I use a wide range of artistic methods combined with carefully selected discarded elements or imagery taken from nature and industry. The structure and residual color of the discarded material is allowed to influence the formal and conceptual approach. This process of reusing or recycling in my work becomes a symbolic act of preservation. I use drawing and painting as a visual glue to integrate unexpected materials such as cardboard, refuse, or newspaper into a familiar landscape.
Christopher and his wife Ilania have recently opened Stangler Fine Art + Contemporary Craft in Orchard Park.
