Jacob Farkas

Artist
Jacob Farkas' use of color, texture and shape often evokes an imagery of architectural and urban motifs. By combining and layering various mediums, he brings about a sense of history and discovery through his process oriented technique. While not limiting himself to the urban references, he draws upon his travels to expose other imagery in his work. One can also find a sense of primitive influence in his mark making. This combined with his spontaneous gestural approach to the surface introduces another dimension to his work. The work of Jacob Farkas can be found in numerous private collections, as well as, corporate public collections.
