His work has been shown in galleries and museums internationally, with solo exhibitions in NYC, London, and Kyoto. His work has been collected by numerous public and private collections including The West Collection, The Saatchi Collection, Fidelity Investments, The New Britain Museum of Art, and many more. Aaron eats green leafy vegetables every day.
Aaron’s work is a collage-based approach to painting. It’s physically constructed by layering collected print material, found photographs, and hand painted paper. The painted paper is more akin to monotype printed surfaces and staining. In recent work, he’s been pigment treating the surfaces of Japanese washi paper, Thai mulberry paper, and Italian printmaking paper as collage material. He’s interested in the analog version of creating a sense of registration and purposeful mis-registration. The space between the two is energized by a vibrating visual distortion as a result. He works on both paper and wood panel surfaces, moving the image from table to wall to floor and back to table at times. The limitless process of collage-based work is exciting to Aaron as a truly malleable medium.
