Ego-Art

"Ego Art" is a long overdue term coined by Artist Timothy John Cody, of Long Island, New York. It has roots in modern art schools such as Dadaism, and Expressionism. The term is used to describe an art form which utilizes and recognizes the ego's role in the production of art. Ego-art is a method for rediscovering the true nature of self, and identifying the ego's control over the artistic landscape. In duality, the Ego and the Self struggle to be heard in the artistic process. Ego Art is either the elaboration or the realization of The Egos power over our lives. It seeks to damn culture, consumerism, materialism and Desire, with an edification and exaltation of the Self. Holistic oneness.
