The artist
Gregory Dunbar is a visual artist based in Washington, Connecticut, whose work explores the space between structure and intuition. With a background in landscape architecture and a current career in STEM education, Dunbar brings a precise, systems-oriented sensibility to a deeply handmade practice.
Influenced by artists such as Hiroshi Sugimoto, Chuck Close, and Fernando Bengoechea, he reimagines photography as a tactile, time-intensive process. Each piece begins with an original image, printed in duplicate, then meticulously sliced and woven by hand. The result is work that feels both architectural and organic, measured and meditative.
Subtle misalignments, frayed edges, and shifting grids are not imperfections but markers of presence—quiet records of labor, attention, and time. No two works are alike; each holds its own rhythm of repetition, disruption, and balance.
