J. Bradley Faus


Artists’ Statement

As a visual artist I am driven by an interest in the process of assemblage and collage and the aesthetics of weather on time worn surfaces, objects, and locales. Carefully selected wood, metal, and various found elements are at home in my work and combine with painted and layered components. These scraps of things blend in a personal and particular manner. Making a unique surface or construction, suggesting a memory of near or far away places, and serving as a portal for the viewer to see into or imagine another time and place.
