Working primarily in acrylic on canvas and velvet, highly personal subject matter is filtered through the lenses of art history and iconography. Dichotomies of particular interest are playfulness and sadness, humor and cynicism, reverence and rebellion, high art and kitsch. Influences from the non-art world include music, mythology, literature, pop culture, dreams, and nightmares. Though being inclined toward the grotesque, surreal and darkly humorous, Hammond’s work is bright, poppy, funny, and inviting.
