About the Artist

B. 1993
Springfield, MA
Drawing on deep interests in psychology, philosophy, and politics, Tony Artemisia’s work centers on the exploration of emotional reaction and response. Merging the realms of abstract and figurative painting, he uses a wide variety of mixed media to create colorful and visceral works of art. His paintings are intended to create a response within the viewer and to provide a space for the viewer to explore one’s own thoughts and understand themselves on a deeper level.
Artemisia’s paintings are evolving explorations into the possibilities of the materials available, using tools and techniques to create movement and texture though layers of paint. The imagery in Artemisia’s work is a combination of memory, imagination, and experimentation. His unmistakably loud paintings pay homage to the experimental work of his artistic predecessors, past and present.
