THOMAS ZIPP

Through his paintings and large-scale installations, Thomas Zipp develops fantasy scenarios verging on the eccentric and theatrical. Taking his inspiration from art history, politics, philosophy, religion, and popular culture, Zipp uses unlikely combinations of sources and genres to trigger a sense of familiarity within the absurd. The darkly humorous alternative worlds that Zipp creates exist on the borders of the rational and irrational, debasing everyday beliefs and assumptions.
