From Plush Gallery:
“Brent Ozaeta / Garden of Sprites
Brent Ozaeta is a Dallas-based painter / printmaker and recent recipient of the Dallas Museum of Art DeGolyler artist award. He has been featured in both New American Paintings and the Texas Biennial. His current work builds fragmented landscapes inspired by anime and manga. The images are drawn from the infinite scroll of internet based image boards. Narratives are constructed intuitively, with an emotional range moving from melancholic to ecstatic. The exhibition title references the dual nature of the word “sprite”, as an ethereal fairy creature and also a two-dimensional bitmap image which is integrated into video game environments. The artist’s imagery is based in digital sources, becoming paintings which combine acrylic and screen printing techniques.”
