Artist Bio: Joel Kirk Richards is a contemporary artist whose work engages with themes of antiquity, religion, spirituality, equality, and love. His work asks questions about modern practice of religion as it relates to historical narratives and mythologies, prioritizing the poetry of devotional text over dogma or historical accuracy. Stylistically, Kirk's work bridges or walks a tightrope between classical and abstract expressionism.
