BIO:

Dan Rawlings produces unique contemporary art that explores the juxtaposition of industrial production, heavy industry, and the natural environment. With the most delicate hand, Dan Rawlings carves intricate foliage motifs into his own hand-painted vintage-style road signs using a plasma cutter. Rawlings is a self-taught artist who is never afraid to push his experimental style, carving huge installations featuring grain silos, aircraft, tanker trucks, and vans. Rawlings presents a complex relationship with nature in his work, hinting that the greed of oil companies and our addiction to fossil fuels will have consequences. Rawlings also provides a way out, expressing nature's ability to thrive and heal once we have allowed life to return.
