Lance Carlson is a practicing architect working for several years in his own firm in Atlanta, Georgia. He has studied painting, drawing and collage among other creative pursuits with a renewed enthusiasm.

The freedom and control that avails itself in art, can be elusive in architecture.
As he continues to develop skills in 2-dimensional works, he expects to transfer some of the same ideals into architecture

He has shown in numerous group shows and venues across Metro Atlanta and the U.S. with solo shows at Perimeter College in Clarkston, GA and dk gallery in Marietta, GA. His pieces are in many private and corporate collections. He is a founding member of the Atlanta Collage Society and prime mover in their 2012 Marilyn Project.


STATEMENT

Throughout recorded history, man has explored the connections between his perceived world of events, emotions and environment. He has utilized music, art and literature as a voice of expression. The beauty and rhythms of these connections seem to synchronize and play out over time to form a significant socio-cultural record.

My work is a record of the connections and relationships that I have discovered within my own perceived world, through music, art and literature. This process may start on a somewhat literal level but it soon evolves into new discoveries and interpretations unbounded by conventional time. My marks and imagery form the rhythm of this dialogue.
