ARTIST’S STATEMENT / Wes Bogner 2009
I have always enjoyed the outdoors. I was taught to canoe, camp and fish by my father. Fishing has taken me to beautiful places, created some of my best memories, provided meals and campfire camaraderie I still share. Living in Hawaii & Oregon, salt and freshwater fish territories combine to create a wide spectrum of colors, tastes and habitats for me to explore.
I began resampling 'Fish Tales' in 2008; a conceptual series I created 25 years ago. Elements of reality are juxtaposed with absurd fish characters creating an artistic satire of humanity. In a fish-eat-fish world it doesn’t matter if you’re a vegetarian. I enjoy provoking thought as well as laughter.
The flexibility of the digital process allows me to explore many alternative approaches to image design immediately. I often use photographic sources coupled with inspiration and experiential knowledge to achieve my visual goals.
Fish Tales by Wes Bogner is a series of digital art works using the latest archival media and ultra-chrome pigment inks. Protected from UV exposure and environmental contamination these print will last decades. I have found fish are a perfect vehicle for expressing some part of my inherent and perhaps warped view of the world.
