Logan T. Sibrel's (born 1986 in Jasper IN lives and works in Brooklyn NY) paintings and
drawings depict moments of great joy and beauty but also fear sadness desire and aggression.
Frequently only part of the mostly male figures is depicted. Sibrel's cropping can feel
simultaneously intimate and alienating-fragmentary stories are told that touch you through
their authenticity and vulnerability. Sibrel's artistic maneuvers include overlapping shifted
perspectives and text fragments that appear like snippets of overheard conversations and thus
create a collage effect. This book is the artist's first comprehensive publication with works
from the last twenty months. While the first part presents the artist's paintings the second
part presents his drawings with the edges of the backing paper digitally removed so that it
looks as if the images were drawn directly into the book.
