Trek Thunder Kelly’s Art Meets Fashion and Commerce

trek thunder kelly-wishham-female-b

I am really feeling Trek Thunder Kelly’s relationship to art and commerce. In his art Kelly uses iconic imagery and juxtaposes it with opposing ideas and often in great humor. I am completely drawn to his Indian fashion meets art series. It is visually unique, powerful, and innovative!

In addition the artist espouses the idea of inserting art unexpectedly, and out-of-context, into our daily reality. For example, in 1999, he wore a three-piece, black-tie tuxedo every where, every day for a year, challenging people’s ideas of fashion, and art.
