Biography

Mark Thomas Gibson | Fredericks & Freiser

Portrait by Michael Marcelle 

Mark Thomas Gibson

In Mark Thomas Gibson’s work the revolution will not be televised, it will be cartooned, abstracted, and mediated through the lenses of a Southern Gothic horror, Black Pulp, post-psychedelic graphics, and art history. Gibson’s political images combine escalation and despair as they subvert the fixed center of our shared narrative.
