Blaine De St. Croix

Contemporary studio artist and painter Blane De St. Croix creates both indoor and outdoor works, from large oil paintings and mixed media sculptural wall pieces to outdoor sculpture. He frequently centers his work around environmental concerns, which are represented in images of endangered species revealing, as the artist says, "the rigid boundaries of human encroachment on the natural world." More recently, St. Croix's work represents human body parts, such as multiple castings of tongues and hands, as an exploration of our sensory capabilities and limitations in communication with one another, and in our experience of the natural world. De St. Croix was previously a museum curator and now an artist and professor based in South Florida and Brooklyn, NY.
