Bunkt_

Bunkt_ is an artist living in New Hampshire who was born in 1972. Bunkt_'s art has been compared to punk rock because of its imperfect and raw emotion. Bunkt_'s art doesn't talk to you, it screams at you.

A completely self-taught artist, Bunkt_ began painting for the first time at the age of 45. Bunkt_ was given an early boost of confidence when after only a few short months of painting he was chosen to show his work at the local art gallery. This early success has led bunkt_ on a relentless path of painting and self-discovery. Bunkt_ paints constantly, his work changes and evolves at a rapid pace. The lack of training and no art school has allowed bunkt_ to create art that is authentic, experimental and lawless.

Artist Statement : 

“My art is guided by emotion, anxiety, excitement and anger. My art is created amongst chaos. My studio floor is covered with supplies and unconventional materials. My paintings are constantly changing and evolving and may go through many phases before they are complete. Often my work is glued, stapled, burnt, cut and rearranged again and again. The final product tells a story of both hardships and resilience. My art is not perfect and it is not beautiful.”
