Divided State of Chaos

Joe Egan addresses interconnectivity in his artwork by incorporating the aesthetics and gestures of graffiti. Interconnectivity and the idea of interconnectivity can be a broad collection of perceptions. That is an integral reason why Egan incorporates what he refers to as perception abstraction. Egan expresses how he sees things, how he remembers things, how he perceives the world he is a part of and ultimately interconnectivity in a broad spectrum. He has developed his perception abstraction over decades of graffiti writing beginning in 1990, growing up in New Jersey and living in New York City for over two decades, as well as many other expressive endeavors and experiences that he has been connected to and involved in over the years.

Divided States of Chaos originated with the concept of a perception abstraction portrait of an entity mired in the current political turmoil in the United States.

Egan works as a Lead Art Handler on the Post-War and Contemporary evening sales at Christie’s Rockefeller Center, and regularly exhibits his art in NYC and has exhibited internationally.
