Brett Flanigan approaches the work in this series by reflecting on a specific place or experience, and responding to this meditation by laying down a framework of color and composition that portrays the feeling of each. Utilizing this substructure, he continues his exploration of systems through pattern, probability, logic or repetition. These systems are a way for the artist to navigate a series of informed decisions that result in unpredictable outcomes. Flanigan holds a degree in Biology from the University of California, Santa Barbara. He works primarily in painting and sculpture. His work has been exhibited throughout the US, as well as internationally. Flanigan has also completed a number of public artworks, including a mural at the Lilley Museum at the University of Nevada, Reno, and a large scale public sculpture in downtown Oakland. Flanigan lives and works in Oakland, CA.
