Item Description
Trevor Mezak is a mixed media artist based in Southern California. Largely self-taught, he draws inspiration from his early experiences with his father, when he learned to use tools and to work with his own hands. Since then, Mezak has channeled his daredevil personality into a body of work that aims to create a tactile conversation between what is manufactured and what is naturally found in the environment.
The materials with which Mezak works—reclaimed wood, concrete slabs, metal, nails, screws, gunpowder—are more familiar to construction sites but are ultimately transformed into abstract, painterly gestures of pure texture. A devoted surfer who regularly tests prototype boards, Mezak’s connection with the unpredictability and power of the ocean translates into his artistic practice. The exchange of energy, whether it be using power tools or a palette knife, is what unites Mezak’s personal experience with his surroundings.
Mezak has been recognized for his collaborations with Collector’s Editions and Disney Fine Art, and he has exhibited nationally over the years. He is currently expanding his abstract, textural work.
The board is titled ”Central Baja” as the image was created off of a memory from a recent Central Baja surf trip. The wave is from a secret spot that Trevor came across on his travels. The art is created with concrete, rusted metal, and burlap.
