ABOUT THE ARTIST

The world is animated by its own elemental potency that sways and pushes. And the world is energized by each person whose thoughts and feelings charge our common atmosphere. At the convergence of these two domains, the natural and the human, are the paintings of Tiko Kerr. In them a kind of conceptual algebra operates in which the categories of energy become equivalent, allowing us to ponder the equal sign connecting them : the constant movement between the observable and the invisible, between what we know and what we sense is real.
For Kerr, nature is not a fixed image, but something always in flux, wavering in the light, inflamed with color. And in his paintings, color itself is heightened, amping up the experience of seeing, until we begin to understand that Kerr is telling us not just about the appearance of things, but about the possibility of ecstacy.
He does not allow us to turn away from what is also unseen and unpaintable, a sense of mortality and of hope.
