New York native Jason Mamarella, best known for his disturbing but lovable D.W. Krsna character, has a long history of sacrificing for his art. Since his start in the late 1980s, his work has straddled the line between urban and fine art. His creations, well informed by the do-it-yourself ethos, are at once vibrant, ethereal, and quietly subversive. Mr. Mamarella’s studio work, introspective in nature, is rich in the symbolism inherent in the ambiguity of meaning found in the human experience.
