About the Artist:Patrick Turk b. 1976 - Quasi-scientist and self-taught artist, Patrick Turk explores the mysteries of the universe in his highly detailed and imaginative hand-cut paper assemblages. Images taken from any number of resources including science-fiction novels, encyclopedias, history, and scientific diagrams, are cut and assembled in oftentimes multidimensional surfaces to create curious and dark narratives. Says Turk, “The intense levels of detail become a microcosm, forming a reflection of the human relationship to the plasticity of time and space, and to the process of self-unfolding.”
