About Ariel
Art is meditative for me; I enjoy creating as much as the install!
Each installation is an attempt at a new medium of art. I love challenges which allow me to study new things.
I've been designing large-sized scenic and decorative art for several decades; several old NYC nightclubs such as Limelight, Pacha NYC, Club Love and others and lately in private homes, restaurants, galleries, music fairs and large events.
Much of my recent art is exhibited at the legendary NYC Loft Party, where I have the honor of serving as a contributing artist, producing four large installations annually and helping preserve the legacy of late musical host and audio virtuoso David Mancuso.
Many of my mixed media installations manifest a light, whimsical and youthful inner child, which reflects my inner joy and a cheerful personality.
Enjoy!
