Crawford’s disciplined hand creates powerful imagery like an ancient craftsman, primarily relying on ink and brush to develop his figures.
Closer inspection of Crawford’s work reveals coded messages and admonitions, words and phrases intertwined to form complex labyrinths of shape nestled within the figures delicate spaces.
The surface image is simply a piece of the puzzle, through research and study of the clued text the viewer is able to unlock a deeper layer in Crawford’s colorful yet cryptic work. Rah Crawford creates art for our high-speed information and multimedia culture using inking techniques that date back to the ancients. His work speaks the modern language of this generation in a way that great artists of the past have done or theirs.
