In describing his work, Todd Bourret says he, “reconfigures traditional notions of abstraction and representation by using ‘tasteful’ design schemes and building materials to paint the areas in between and on the edges of office parks and housing developments. By collapsing abstraction into the landscape, I get at a more critical and complicated representation of these places.” Born in Massachusetts, Todd Bourret earned his MFA from California Institute of the Arts in 2001. He currently lives and works in Amsterdam.
