About The Work
Gio Black Peter’s intricate, highly-saturated images reference both the topical and art historical. His private world contains personal narratives, cheeky humor, and folklore. He plays with the landscape and figurative work that is reminiscent of Matisse, Cocteau, and Gauguin. There is no better example of this than The Other Artist’s Family (2016), a painting that takes its name and composition from Matisse’s The Artist’s Family (1911). Peter’s signature style of dense layering and use of pictograms add to the energy of the family scene, and these stylistic elements are a consistent visual thread throughout his works.
