Vincent Fink’s work is surrealism in it’s purest form. His dark images with warped perspectives invite the viewer into a world that came from a lucid dream in which he observed the completed work. Pushing himself to recreate something that was beyond his imagination and skill in his waking life, Vincent has used this inspiration to develop the Metamorphosis Project, a concept that continues to spawn the hidden messages of his dreams. (printed in January 2012 issue of The Houston Press)
Biography
Vincent Fink is an award-winning artist/Renaissance Man working out of his studio in the Houston Arts District. In 2010, he began his first series, Atlas Metamorphosis, with vigorously detailed greyscale Sumi ink perspective drawings spawned from a lucid dream. He continues to push the boundaries of this medium along with Iterations, his series of Sacred Geometry surrealistic paintings. Now the two worlds are merging into a unified series of everything.
The Art Institute of Houston offered essential skills that would resurface later in Vincent’s work. Life drawing techniques and polygonal modeling taught him to mentally deconstruct everything he sees into geometric elements. After college, he started his art career as a graphic designer, where he met his wife. Around this time, he set out on his entrepreneurial journey as a self-employed artist, which he continues today.
Vincent has shown his work in museums, galleries and art centers internationally. You can read articles about him at Surrealism Today, High Brow Magazine, and dozens of other publications over the years.
