"If Hank Feeley were not so strikingly original, I would say that he stands
at the intersection of Magritte and Marvel Comics, but as it is, he has his
own way of disorienting the viewer so we can see again, now with our
perception refreshed." That's a quote from Billy Collins... A well-known
admirer of Feeley's work. Needless to say.... we agree! His work is so
original and out-there that you often feel that you have stumbled into
another dimension. He takes license to reorder and re-contextualize the
world of images to present not the accepted logical arrangement, but rather
an aesthetically provocative re-arrangement. Feeley's sources are endless:
signs and symbols of contemporary culture, art history and literature, myth
and legend, and even doodles. In other words, whatever he can draw on to
throw open the gates of our perception.
