Tim Doud

  • Tim Doud (Washington, DC) works between portraiture and abstraction; through abstraction, he engages deeply with color, line, shape, and composition, reimagining the signifying processes that are inherent in his portraiture. Through the agglomeration of these abstract forms, Doud detaches symbols from their original contexts; by both neutralizing and transforming their cultural significance, he leaves them the possibility of becoming something entirely different.
