People provide me with endless inspiration. Our motivations, beliefs, opinions and perspectives are infinite. For every layer peeled away, there is always another below it. I am interested in the human connection created when looking into someone’s eyes. Why is it that it’s difficult to look directly into someone’s eyes and lie? Why do I divert my gaze if I’m not feeling confident? And why is it more intense to look directly into someone’s eyes and say, “I love you?” “Edye” is a 3 dimensional wall sculpture that has been printed and painted using a acrylic and a digitally simulated multiple exposure process I’ve developed. I began by taking close up photographs of my friend’s eyes. By overexposing the photos, the lines of her face and the shape of her mouth, other facial cues disappeared. In stripping away that context, I found that her naked eyes revealed a sense of intensity, mystery and character.

Rob Grad is known for his bold, insightful 3D photo-based assemblages, sculptures, writing, and music. His heavily layered visuals contrast photographic vignettes of majestic natural environments with textures of urban life, infused with his drawing, painting, and words–an aesthetic largely shaped by his two decades living in Venice Beach, CA. Grad’s work addresses existential issues surrounding desire, self-expression, and resilience in a society inundated by technology, social media, and politics. His new work is increasingly influenced by his early career as a musician when he was signed to RCA Records and appeared on MTV not long after graduating high school. He has shown in museums, galleries, and art fairs from Basel to Miami, and Los Angeles. In 2024 he will be exhibiting at the Museum of Art and History in Lancaster, CA as part of the Getty’s Pacific Standard Time initiative. Other exhibitions include the Museum of Art and History in Lancaster, CA, Torrance Art Museum, Haute Photographie in Rotterdam, and the Griffin Museum of Photography in Boston. He has large-scale commissioned works installed on both coasts, and his work is held in private collections. He also gave a TEDx Talk in Culver City, CA, and participated in a global video project for TikTok China. Rob is a southern California native and lives in Los Angeles.
