BRETT McCORMACK
(b. 1984)
New York based visual artist BRETT McCORMACK works in a range of mediums, often drawing inspiration upon the evolving details of the natural world that have fascinated him since his childhood in rural Maine.
His paintings, murals, sculptures, furniture, and wearables are housed in private collections around the world, and he has collaborated on several projects with renowned interior and fashion designers.
Best known for his meditative process of attaching numerous pieces of hand cut and carefully manipulated paper into creations that celebrate the varied emotional experiences of human individuality, McCormack’s work has been seen in the New York Times, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, and on the walls of Neue Galerie New York.
Fueled by an urgency to reinvigorate the innate sensory experience of a modern humanity intentionally distracted by the unnatural, McCormack hopes that his creations will ignite a personal liberation for every individual that sees his work.
