"I've been drawing cartoons of train-sized people interacting with freight trains for a while and have been painting large scale portraits and figures on freight trains illegally in the past. These pieces allowed me to use a variety of mediums to create some fun fantasy/train art that can all be connected together like a train." - Jarus
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Finding Inertia through the graffiti covered trains in remote Saskatchewan, fellow Canadian
Jarus presents his debut solo exhibition. Showcasing a masterful blend of charcoal, spray paint, pastels and acrylic, the prolific freight muralist and graffiti writer finds himself juxtaposing his arresting portraits of both people and freights effortlessly, regardless of the medium. “Many of my subjects are people that I have met on my journey painting around the world, true forces of inertia, both of us moving together on momentum alone. I feel each portrait in this series is visually unique, but each subject is equally relatable as I capture each portrait as viscerally and honestly as I can, while staying true to the emotion created by these unique people and our interactions,” Jarus said while working at Inner State Gallery’s Artist In Residency studio.
