Scott Hewicker’s Golden Prisn Works
----
San Francisco based painter Scott Hewicker colorfully combines abstraction and representation using both traditional and non-traditonal painting media.
In his works within the Golden Prisn, a group gallery show in 2016, Hewicker deals with the concept of creating something lovable and beautiful from the oppression one faces.
Though the original idea of a Golden Prison is that of a near Stockholm Syndrome, that the beauty of the situation is a harmful illusion to the individual, it can be an important stepping stone for freeing oneself, and even necessary for survival on a daily basis for oppressed peoples.
This necessary beauty is depicted by Hewicker.
