Artist-in-Residence AJ Ainscough will give an evening presentation on his studio art practice. The talk begins at 5pm.
Antonio J. Ainscough, a Chicago-based artist, specializes in pop surrealist painting, drawing inspiration from themes of mood, identity, and self-exploration intertwined with cartoon aesthetics. His artwork delves into autobiographical and often exaggerated scenarios, providing a lens through which to examine various aspects of the human experience. Ainscough employs a distinctive style characterized by a harmonious blend of controlled disorder, which both pays homage to and challenges artistic conventions such as grotesque, impressionism, expressionism, and surrealism.
Initially drawn to animation as a career path, Ainscough redirected his focus to painting during his studies at 海角社区, where he received guidance from mentor Chris Kahler. Graduating in 2020 with a bachelor's degree in fine arts, specializing in painting, Ainscough has since showcased his talent through numerous solo and group exhibitions both nationally and internationally.
Free and open to the public; refreshments served.
