Chris Esposito is a painter and installation artist that lives and works in Queens, New York. He has exhibited locally and internationally and is one half of the art collaborative Damfino. His work is composed of meticulously chosen found materials often selected for their apparent lack of aesthetic qualities and then juxtaposed with sections of monochromatic canvas or impasto; a process of selection, deconstruction and reconstruction that invokes the cosmopolitan of his native NYC with its endless cycles of expansion and decay, and hope and despair.
