Askew - Diamondism Study Silkscreen a 1xRUN Exclusive
‘Diamondism’ is the term I coined when referring to my recent stream of work. It was an offshoot of the ‘Netch’ pieces painted together with Berst. Initially Diamondism came from my observations of crystal formations photographed with a macro lens. In nature colours and form are arranged in ways that defy human logic. All the rules are broken - yet everything is defined perfectly.

One of Camilo’s signature racing girls screen printed over the top of each uniquely painted backgrounds.

I have always felt bad for the monster in monster movies like this, especially when it gets shot at or killed in the end. It just never seemed fair to me. Nobody really ever considers the monster’s point of view. Of course if you’re going to startle and shoot at him, he’s probably going to kill part of your crew in self defense. That’s what happens when you get all up in a wild animal’s business. And just because he decides to kidnap a beautiful woman and drag her down to the bottom of a lagoon and into a secret cave doesn’t mean that he’s going to rape and kill her. So I don’t know what everybody always freaks out about. For all we know he was probably just going to take her out for a fancy lobster dinner and then spend the rest of the night talking about feelings. Then of course it’s always interrupted by some a-hole who cock blocks him by shooting him in the chest 50 times and steals the woman back. pssssh! Whatever. Poor Gillman :(
awesome new work by my boy FOOX
NEWS ALERT October 25, 2010 Artist contacted by Aliens to communicate end of humanity message to the public FOOX contacted by a higher power to communicate the end of time (visual) The most recent addition to the artworld, David Foox (aka FOOX) was recently contacted by a divine alien species, the “Arcturians” and warned of the fall of Man should we “not clean up our act and our planet.” The Arcturians inspired FOOX to create a series of interpretive paintings, expressing their concerns with the end of mankind if we don’t change our destructive path. “The inspiration behind the Ram artwork series stems from contact I had with the Arcturians and their emphasis on humanity’s urgent need to clean up the planet. The image of this Ram’s head was etched into my mind as the message of cleaning up our planet was communicated,” says FOOX pointing to centerpiece Ram’s head juxtapozed into four different backgrounds – Earth, Fire, Water and Air. From FOOX’s contact with the Arcturians he was able to gather information about their beings. The Arcturians are a divine alien species existing somewhere in the 8th or 9th dimensions. They are so advanced that they need not follow any type of time or space constraints and can interact with any part of the Universe -or perhaps Multiverse- effortlessly. They stem from a part of space known as Arcturus – a star system many many light years away. Why did the Arcturians choose to place the Ram image in FOOX’s consciousness? According to ancient teachings, the Ram will herald in the Apocalypse as evil fights evil, Gog and Magog. It is also the time of year in which the death of the sun is represented by the changing of seasons as we transcend into Winter. The Ram has taken on worldwide symbolic meaning.”From Gaul to Black Africa, from India to China there was the same joyful worship of that symbolic Ram which linked creative fire to fertility and even, by mediation of the principle of life itself – immortality,” says FOOX. In other words, humanity through the symbol of the Ram represents the necessary creative forces needed to solve our planetary problems and heal the damaged earth and atmosphere. The Ram representing both stubborn optimism and fiery, masculine “push” energy – means that action can be taken and the environment saved. The series of paintings and the message to tell all must be complete before midnight on October 31st. Please help FOOX in shaping a better future for all, ending conflict, and the destruction to our natural resources by spreading the good will of artistic expression. This may be the only vehicle left in our arsenal to express positivity. David Foox (FOOX) is an artist that takes on unique yet crucial social causes in order to help make the world a better place. FOOX was recently featured in the Wall Street Journal for his celebrity X-Ray lightbox art which raised money for Donate for Life (a NY based organ donation charity). FOOX has also worked collaboratively with the Gift of Life Michigan with 323East Gallery in Detroit on his ORGAN DONOR toys (a set of collectible vinyl toys sold through Kidrobot, Munky King, Poptopia, Ultra-pop, Zeus Comics, and other specialty stores). More recently FOOX has supported the charity Marble Road in their quest to comfort and support families stricken by complex illness. “Afraid of nothing, I step forward.” Says FOOX of his desire to help and support causes and charities with his artwork. Recent Art exhibitions include New York City, Beijing China, Detroit, Texas and more.
