About the artist
Logan T. Sibrel’s works emit one thing particular: intimacy. Yet, we don’t perceive ourselves as voyeurs, for no stranger would be permitted to approach somebody this closely. In other words, the yearnings, disappointments and emotions of the portraits seem to concern us directly. They are the alter egos of the 32-year old artist; they are friends, lovers, characters taken from books or made up entirely in his imagination. “I’m interested in mixing up this 'recipe' so that my relation to the subject is never totally clear, but that some degree of closeness is evident,” is how he puts it himself. Sibrel studied painting at the Indiana University and at Parsons School of Design in New York. His work is exhibited internationally, at MOM Art Space in Hamburg, Underdonk in Brooklyn or Hume Gallery in Chicago.
