Interview with artist Mark George. We talk about the subject matters that compel him, his struggle with the trend of impermanence, an early obsession with line quality, how humans are emotional and plastic and isn't. The relationship between real people and advertising, human imperfection against the demands of design, and the evolution of his artistic process over time as well as his contribution to pop art in general. We discuss everything from his early assemblage work to his no-signature required fine artwork to surviving capitalism by enjoying sunsets. We also specifically talk about his figurative work, black and white series, landscapes series, and collaborations with Tony Rodrigues.
