Josh Graham has supplied Neurosis with a visual language for their performances since 2000. Since then, he had gone on to do album art for Neurosis and Soundgarden, as well as cultivate his own project, A Storm of Light. He created flyers for the first two installments of Scion Rock Fest and did live visuals for legendary stoner doom band Sleep. Within the past few years, Graham’s visual art and music have focused on the imagery of an apocalypse brought about the selfish and exploitive tendencies of mankind post-industrial revolution.
Graham creates vast post apocalyptic landscapes through elaborate digital collage and photo manipulation. His is a world where eroding oil tankers lay marooned in a decaying attic, and polar bears roar majestically in the midst of a bombed out city. Reclamation is a steady theme throughout these new works. Wolves, bears, goats and birds are present, while the only evidence left of man are decaying structures, or the hollow fuselage of a nuclear missile.
River of Time is on display at E6 gallery in San Francisco from June 2 through the 25th.
