Visual Artist Sean Eidder

Visual Artist Sean Eidder creates artwork through a variety of collages and images stirred from his youth.  Before constructing an art piece, he draws from his memories as a kid as well as pop culture.  "Childhood experiences are universal and everyone can relate to them" (Print).  The artwork is similar to being in a dreamlike state and based on fantasy themes. 

"My art pieces are just portions of myself, like pieces of the jigsaw puzzle that is entirely me."  The artist is combining different images of people and integrating them in many environments such as space, the ocean, etc.  There are alot of things going on in each collage but as a whole is balanced and unified.  The artist is successful in creating a complex design and combining people and animals.  It would seem too chaotic for the average viewer.
