Craig Martinez
"My work often has a Native American nuance, but not all pieces can be categorized as such conscious or unconsciously".
Craig Martinez's work tends toward eternal archetypes and he is interested in the human as a spiritual being burdened with reflective thought. The cuts, scratches, and scars on his sculptures are conceptual and literal evidence of being alive. Jungian psychology, William Blake poetry, Catholicism and a lifelong battle with depression are also part of his creative process. His worldview is based on a fundamental belief in redemption.
