THE ARTIST
“Color is my incessant obsession, joy and vexing objective.”— Chris Artabasy
Artabasy's paintings exhibit a unique and dynamic style characterized by vibrant color palettes, bold strokes, and intricate layers that culminate in visually striking compositions. His artistic process involves applying thin transparent layers of oil paint in sweeping gestures, which are then overlaid with rapid and intricate lines of oil bars. This technique results in pieces that are rich in texture, depth, and energy, with hidden layers adding complexity to the overall visual narrative.Inspired by a variety of sources including nature, graffiti, and music, Artabasy's work reflects a fusion of these influences with his own identity, experiences, and memories. This blend of inspirations gives rise to emotional landscapes that invite diverse interpretations, ranging from biophilic motifs to expansive landscapes. Despite the nod to representation, Artabasy's art leans towards abstraction, as he strives to deconstruct traditional forms and explore the fundamental elements of color, motion, and fluidity within his work.Describing his compositions as "introspective biospheres," Artabasy's paintings suggest elements of nature, such as plants or marine landscapes, yet ultimately transcend these references to delve into a realm of abstraction. Through a meticulous layering process that incorporates oil, oil stick, acrylics, and a varied palette of vivid colors, Artabasy builds intricate arrangements that play with light, form, and texture on the canvas. This approach creates pieces that are both visually stimulating and conceptually engaging, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the artist's intricate worlds.Graduating with a degree in Fine Art and Visual Communications from the Art Institute of Ft. Lauderdale, combined with over 20 years of experience in advertising, media, and design, Artabasy brings a wealth of creative expertise to his artistic practice. His tenure as the Executive Creative Director for IHG and his entrepreneurial ventures in his digital agency and media company have undoubtedly influenced his approach to art, infusing his work with a sophisticated understanding of visual storytelling, composition, and design.Artabasy's transition back to his passion for art after a successful creative career speaks to his commitment to artistic expression and creative exploration. This journey from the realms of advertising and media back to the canvas underscores his dedication to honing his craft, pushing artistic boundaries, and crafting expressive and visually compelling works that reflect his unique artistic vision and personal evolution.
