Art of Greenwood // St. Gabriel, LA

My art is about human imperfection in all it’s guises. I resent the package we are sold by much of media regarding a one-size-fits-all notion of beauty and “perfection.” Having grown up with a handicapped brother, I learned of the incredible beauty in imperfection. When we have young people with body image problems, with self-loathing and a massive lack of self-confidence, I feel this is a problem we need to address. I believe as an artist I have an obligation to use this message in my work in the hopes of making some tiny change in the world around me.
