I find that the older I get the more in tune I become with the natural world, and at the same time I am slowly regressing from the "human" world. Most humans have little or no connection to nature, animals or any sincere belief in our underlying spiritual connection to everything in this world (and farther beyond). We spend our days online glued to our phones seeking more information, more bits and bytes. We've successfully downloaded so much data to our brains that we've shuttered these natural connections. Personally, I'm all for tech, for knowledge and the progress it brings. However, this work stands in contrast to the data addiction. It is a grounding work for me, my reconnection to everything outside of tech.

To Michigan artist Jon Parlangeli there is no other path but to constantly ask and then answer questions via different modalities within his medium. This leads to new explorative bodies of work offering differing styles, genres, or techniques that satiate his curiosity for the real and the abstract. Parlangeli uses both nature and figure as his muse often jostling between them during studio sessions in an effort to solve internal conundrums exposed during session. Standing over such processes is his artistic signature, color. Born partially color blind, Parlangeli uses color as his weapon of indelicacy often pushing beyond subtle yet achieving a cosmopolitan of sublime.
Parlangeli has placed works within corporate and private collections throughout the US, Europe, Asia and the Middle East and his works have been shown in the US and internationally.
