Gregory Sparks

Gregory Sparks is an artist/designer, working in New York City. The importance of the relationship between culture and the tangible objects produced is what informs and inspires his work. His working process is centered on meticulous and labor intensive installations and drawings. He creates work that strives to make products of value and beauty from mundane origins. From turning bleached copy paper into a sculptural window garden to redefining goldfish excrement as culturally significant product, his mission is to highlight process and the cultural reverberations that are produced. He received his bachelors and masters degrees in Landscape Architecture from Cornell University and the University of Pennsylvania and has continued studies in art and design at Parsons and New York University. He is orginally from Honolulu, HI and now lives in Los Angeles and New York.
