About this artwork
1986 is a mixed wall sculpture made from mdf, latex, acrylic, lacquer and polycrylic. While the shape and form are modern, the distressed and expressionist paint undercut the coldness of the hard edges. The result is a piece that feels both modern and old, new and used and modern and retro. Vivid blues, pinks and purples glow from this piece as multiple paint layers were added and shipped back. The result is an almost tie-dye effect. I named it…
1986 as a nod to the time I was growing up and the overall feel of the piece, which feels 80's inspired.

« I am a wood sculpture artist obsessed with form, balance, and composition in a formalist and modernist manner, working predominately with wood as a medium. »
Scott Troxel is an award-winning American artist whose pieces have been exhibited in both solo and group events nationally. Though he describes his art as non-objective, it explores concepts relating to age and time. In addition, the idea of futurism, mid-century modernism, Art Deco, and timeless aesthetics, all find a place within Troxel's work. He employs both new and repurposed materials, as well as man-made mediums such as plastic, combined with century-old wood.
