Painting / Collage (selected work)

Ezekiel Honig’s visual art is influenced by equal parts abstraction, minimalism, constructivism, the sounds of everyday life, and his background in instrumental music production. Using acrylic paint, encaustic, and a variety of everyday mediums (paper, cotton, cardboard, metal …) on wood and canvas, he is interested in tone and ambiguity, and how the arrangement of space or a seemingly tame image can elicit a visceral reaction. The angle of a line, the smudge of a color, the breaking down of a material - tiny movements that can open up large worlds of perception drive ideas and communication into an object.
