Bryan Greene (White Plains)

Bryan Michael Greene’s digital paintings investigate his place in societal narratives based on the materials around him. Greene weaves the iconography into a single image with multiple sources. These sources are song lyrics, movies, books, fine art, and social interactions in the real world. His intricate process includes dressing up as a character in costumes he creates, building models and even making oil paintings. He then photographs each element that will then composite into a digital painting. The image can range in meaning from a personal experience inspired from something in pop culture to ideas from exposure to something trending in US society. Bryan Michael Greene (b. 1973) holds an MFA in Digital Painting and Animation and a BFA from The School of Visual Arts (New York, NY).
