Chryrum Lambert (b. 1980, Tacoma, Washington) is a self taught artist living and working in Los Angeles, CA. Using a unique process that blurs the line between collage and traditional painting, Lambert creates forms that ambiguously oscillate between completely abstract and vaguely familiar. Lambert begins each piece with raw mark making on paper before carefully cutting out strokes in their organic shapes, eventually reassembling the pieces on his signature cream colored canvas. Drawn to dynamic, high-contrast jumps in color and particularly concerned with texture and tonal value, the artist takes great pleasure in altering and affecting his materials in order to extract their unique characteristics. Works that seem abstract at first dissolve into episodic images of figures in a landscape, forms perceived as jagged stones grow into teeth, all while a careless brushstroke that suddenly looks like a snake is engulfed in flames– or maybe it’s the flame that’s transformed into a snake? More than anything, Lambert is interested in images that are in transition: growth, decay, signs of age or change, these are the qualities the artist seeks to embody through his work.
Internationally published and exhibited, Lambert has shown at Palazzo Monti, Italy; Underdonk, New York; DTN Gallery, New York; Ed. Varie, New York; Charlie James Gallery, Los Angeles; Hashimoto Contemporary, San Francisco; Independent Art Book Fair New York and Untitled Miami Beach Art Fairs among others. Lambert's work has been written about in New American Paintings; Artsy; The Wild Magazine; Juxtapoz Magazine; The Last Magazine; Sight Unseen; It's Nice That; and Paper Magazine amongst others. His work will be presented in an upcoming solo exhibition at la BEAST gallery, announcement forthcoming.
