Stephen Hall is a New York-based artist who paints abstract shapes, still life forms or surreal figurative motifs, which are rendered as symbolic metaphors, contextualized as such by the use of intense vibrating colors, ambiguous light sources and spatial dynamics. The New York Times sums up his work pretty well: “His large canvases in vividly saturated acrylic show cultural conflict and homogenization: a Japanese woman who, on closer examination, wears a pattern of Eames chairs in her kimono and is clutching McDonald’s fries; a Native American against a patterned ground that turns out to consist of silhouettes of Windex bottles.”
