Niagara在1964年8月23日出生,
Niagara 的画作和绘图技巧,
就像她所给予作品中的那些人的性格一样,
强烈却十分迷人。藉由流畅的线条和幽雅的曲线,
她创造出具有紧密架构却又和谐、平衡的设计感。
由她赋予生命的作品隐约散发一股不可言喻的魅力,
她的创作只为了呈现完整的自己,这就是Niagara的创作哲学,
Niagara的创作生涯起於1970年代,
在密西根州大学学习绘画的过程中,
让她确立了创作的人生目标,
Niagara更给自己一个"Niagara Woman"的称号,
当她住在安那宝市的时候,加入了庞克乐团Destroy All Monsters,
这个乐团的成员还包括了同为热爱艺术创作的学生:
Mike Kelley以及Jim Shaw,
关於Destroy All Monsters你可以看以下这篇文章:
The "noise" band Destroy All Monsters—
including Mike Kelley, Cary Loren, Jim Shaw,
and Niagara—formed in the 1970s;
the current members (Kelley, Loren, and Shaw) work
as artists both individually and as the Collective.
Strange Frut: Rock Apocrypha consists
of a video and four mural-sized images painted
on canvas in the manner of classic freak-show banners.
The paintings, created by Kelley and Shaw,
focus on entertainment and subculture personalities associated
with the Detroit area in the late 1960s and 1970s.
At that time, the city was renowned
for its alternative hard rock scene,
and syndicated network programming was eclipsing local
television fare. The designers hint at their "take"
by adding symbols or unlikely context to the portraits.
For the video, director Loren mixed tapes
of local music promoters with archival footage
of television programs aimed at young viewers.
The recording also features reenactments
of period rock-oriented urban myths,
with a soundtrack by Destroy All Monsters.
Strange Frut: Rock Apocrypha is the first part
of Loren’s "Detroit Culture Trilogy."
现在Niagara则是担任Dark Carnival的主唱,
Niagara在创作歌曲的时候,你可以发现,
她注入了许多自己艺术作品的元素,混沌的,模糊的,甚至是狂乱的,
你不需要特别去替她的作品下定义,她的创作,只为了自己而活: )
现在,HYSTERIC GLAMOUR涉谷店展开了NIAGARA作品展,
