Joe Kissinger Artist Statement: As an artist I’ve explored many disciplines, including painting, sculpture, metalsmithing, ceramics, and woodworking. My work is a convergence of these diverse traditions. The technical skills I’ve picked up from each medium allow me to push past traditional boundaries, exploring new possibilities in my constructed and wood-turned pieces. At the core of my practice is a commitment to reinvention. I deliberately engineer my process so that each object is different from the last. For me, repetition is stagnation. This relentless pursuit of novelty is an intellectual necessity that fuels my brain and keeps my work evolving. Ultimately, I want to share this thrill of discovery with the viewer, creating unexpected pieces that disrupt expectations, challenge perceptions, and consistently surprise.
