"Raw": a composition of acrylic paint and paper collage.
Ooto's current work in acrylic paint and paste symbolizes the culmination of his journey as an artist. His stonemason's trowel, now his signature painting tool, binds the relationship between the builder and the artist. This uniquely crafted style of texture and paint reflects the aesthetics of the Abstract Expressionist movement of mid-century America, reborn as a visceral, natural response to the Digital Age.
