URBAN, OUTSIDER ARTIST
The self- taught artist who constructs little men made of sticks, known as stikman, has an obscure fascination with urban decay, and public interaction. His goal may be to show that everything is ephemeral and nothing stays the same. Believing that art should speak for itself, he has maintained an anonymity and allure with a cult-like following since living in the Germantown section of Philadelphia during college in 1970.
