Contact us with inquiries and THANK YOU for your continued virtual support! - - - ‘Gods of the Plague’ is a painted set of cardboard box sculptures, that resemble both individual figures and a cityscape, all executed since the City of Chicago’s ‘Stay at Home’ order was enacted during the current Covid-19 crisis. - - - . . . . #darinlatimer #purplewindow #helloneighbor #southloop #southloopchicago #southloopneighbors #artoncardboard #cardboardsculptures #artduringcovid19 #artduringquarantine #artduringlockdown #sculptures #storefront #chicagoartist #chicagoart #chicagoartists #chicagogalleries #elephantroomgallery #artistsduringapandemic #supportlivingartists #collectart #artcollectors https://www.instagram.com/p/B_2rtwlFij8/?igshid=1e64gjec8t28s

Harrison) & is currently on view @theblackstonehotel . . . . Darin Latimer was born in Detroit, MI and has long been obsessed with the city. He started drawing as a very small child, long before he talked, according to his mother, and he never stopped. Drawing was often the antidote to boredom or obligations. He would draw constantly through 10 hour cashier shifts at his dad’s store on the long Vistavision shaped ‘Cigarette Cards’. His mother would drop him off for extracurricular drawing and pastel classes but they always drew some other artist’s picture of something. Darin used to skip school, returning to the city to spend whole days spelunking, book-hunting, salvage-picking, concert and club-going, but mostly just driving around with a camera. When his wife, Lina, attended the University of Detroit, his obsession became a part time profession as he would spend whole days taking photographs all over the city. Writing informs his art in an obvious, but impractical way. Darin does not distinguish between the two of them much. “I get a….let’s call it ‘notion’ (because I loathe the words ‘idea’ and ‘inspiration’)…something has bobbed up in the always-on pot of Polenta of my active conflating thoughts, it steps out, preens a bit and petitions for some further actualization; to be ‘made’. I putter in skeptically and it could be with either or both of my alleged vocations.” - Latimer . . . . #darinlatimer #darinlatimerart #krinkink #markmaking #chicagoartist #chicagoart #contemporaryart #art #writer #loverofart #paintings #collectart #artcollectors #elephantroomgallery #elephantroomgalleryartist #southloopchicago #makeart #drawings #keepsketchbooks (at The Blackstone Hotel) https://www.instagram.com/p/B73y-CaB-6j/?igshid=h8nuc91xpenz
