Description
Notes: Featured at his Solo show at Primary, Miami FL 2022.
Dating back to the 16th century, crime pamphlets, ballads, and trial accounts have captivated the interest of literate individuals from the artisan class. These unsettling narratives were often embraced as a means to quench common curiosity and gain a deeper understanding of the malevolence lurking in society. What dwells in the shadows, in that realm where temptation and virtue collide?
Through the prism of True Crime, Hunter Potter delves into the internal conflicts of individuals, meditates on goodwill, and hones his ability to distinguish the wicked from the virtuous.
As Potter aptly puts it, "Jesus walked on water, and the devil built a boat. Only one was a miracle, but both of them could float." He expounds, "When these two enigmatic forces materialize on the same tranquil lake, inviting you for a swim, it becomes imperative to differentiate between them."
For Potter, the connection with True Crime literature transcends mere words. It represents a profound immersion into American culture and his familial heritage. These narratives compel individuals to seek illumination in the darkest of times, recognizing that light and darkness are inextricably intertwined.
He ponders, "I wonder, how does one overcome the devil? To deny its existence is an exercise in futility. The realm of adversity is pervasive, and the journey uphill is fraught with challenges. But one persists. Godspeed!" - Source: Primary
Presentation
Hunter Potter was born in 1990 in Syracuse, NY, and studied Fine Art at the University of Vermont where he graduated in 2013. He moved to New York City in 2015 and spent time sign painting, studio assisting, and art handling while finding his way to becoming a full-time artist. Now focused solely on his own practice, Potter maintains a studio in Brooklyn, New York. Hunter Potter uses a bold color palette and whimsical, geometric figures inspired by American folklore to create poppy paintings that celebrate the minutiae of daily life on a monumental scale.
Potter's figures often feature society's underdogs; criminals, fighters, and runaways he associates his work with are similar to characters in novels by John Steinbeck, Ernest Hemingway, and Larry McMurtry, whose writing influences Potter's work. Although he continues to create more intimate work, the artist's enthusiasm for large scale works began when he was apprenticed to paint billboards in New York. Potter was the recipient of the Roger Smith Artist Fellowship at the Vermont Studio Center in 2018 and was awarded residencies in London at the Plop Residency and The Fores Project.
His work has been exhibited in several solo and group exhibitions such as “A Little North" (L21 Palma, 2023); “Honey, I'm Home", L21 (Barcelona, 2022); “Godspeed", Primary Projects (Miami, 2022); CAN Ibiza 22 with L21 Gallery (Ibiza, 2022); “Art in Mayfair", Roman Road Gallery (London, 2022); “Looking Through the Window Wearing Only Socks", L21 Gallery (Mallorca, 2021); “My Sweet Doppelgänger", Richard Heller Gallery (Los Angeles, 2021); “The Artist Is Online", König Galerie (Berlin, 2021) or “Don'tGiveADamns", Marian Cramer Projects (Amsterdam, 2020)
