RODEZ ART - Key Persons


George Rodez

Rodez is a self-taught artist whose strength is his diversity, allowing himself the freedom to create a diverse series of artworks, each vastly different from the other. In his experiences with his mother's mental illness, including multiple personalities, Rodez observed that each personality had a different strength and function, each serving a unique purpose. Rodez has taken that lesson and incorporated it into his art, with each series providing him different experiences and allowing all his personalities to show through. Rodez insists that an artist must explore the infinite possibilities with which he is presented and is compelled to use his artistic creativity to the maximum potential, never giving in to stagnation. He believes that as human beings, we are all very complex in our own unique way and we should share with others our many characteristics and emotions. He states that to live life is to feel all of these emotions and we should use them as tools to help us live a fuller, richer, and more complete life. Rodez lives through his paintings in this very same fashion.
