Works by local artist (and GTC Alum) Jason Hedman were on display through March 30 at Kenosha Creative Space, 624 57th St.
Jason Hedman, a lifelong Kenoshan, has been a creator in many different avenues through life. With past dabbling in writing and music, visual art has always been the medium Hedman has embraced time and time again.
In the past few years, Hedman has become well-known throughout the community as an up-and-coming artist. Hedman’s style is always evolving, but tends to reflect his interest in history, society, and pop culture.
Some of his well-known pieces have incorporated other popular icons in new and different ways. Much of his art represents his own anti-authoritarian nature which he has finally found a safe (and legal) path to cast his interests.
This past winter, Hedman has experimented with collage art – mixed media with acrylics on canvas. This style shift is partly in response to the growing trend of artificial intelligence. With an interest in history, Hedman dove into collecting a large supply of newspapers and magazines dating back almost 100 years.
Former GTC student ( and Parkside Alumni) Eric Houghton will soon be releasing his next book: “Happy Hogan’s Day.” As Eric recounts, the holiday was created and celebrated in his family around the legend of the “Hogan Elf,” who allegedly put the toys together incorrectly after breaking them at the north pole [and who may or may not have in actual fact been Eric and his brother] …and they somehow wound up in his younger sister’s holiday stocking every year on “Hogan’s Day.”
From Eric’s book:
Eric Houghton is an artist, writer, humorist and performer from Southeastern Wisconsin. He has created over 6000 painting, fifty murals, produced a dozen theatrical performances, and written one other children’s book.
He invented Hogan’s Day in the 1980s, when he and his brother wondered if they could create a holiday from scratch. Hogan’s Day has been proudly celebrated in the Houghton household for decades.
