About my artwork
www.parliamentbrigade.com
www.seanboylan.websiteanimal.com
I perfer to show not tell. However my painting explores simplicity and cropping form to create a narrative in each painting. My movies and stories are about an individual creating an understanding and searching for a reality in what appears to be an absurd and dreamlike existence. My music is best described as a mixture of Michael Keaton's performance in Batman and looking out windows. All of my artwork deals with dreams, memory, and the persistance of a narrative (no matter how clear or unclear that narrative appears).
Artists I like
Oscar Wilde, kids I teach, Luc Tuymans, Marlene Dumas, Martin Eder, The Four Tops, Neo Rauch, Tom Tywker, Animal Collective, Michaël Borremans, The Temptations, Raoul Haugue, David Nash, Jean-Pierre Melvile, Jean Cocteau, The Rolling Stones, Peter Doig, Paul Noble, Glen Brown, Jenny Saville, Lucien Freud, Odd Nerdrum, most all New Orleans soul music, Jean Luc Godard, Werner Herzog, WES anderson, Francois Truffaut, Alfred Hitchcock, Jean Renior, Michael Keaton, Jim Henson, Caribou, Monsieur Degas, Turner, Soren Kierkegaard, Four Tet, Giorgio Morandi, Phil Collins (both of them are fine by me), Albert Camus, The Brothers Quay, Krzysztof Kieslowski, Stanley Kubruck, The Kinks, Ray Noble, Michel Gondry. . .

thank you for the interrest, they are theatralic performances who more or less interrupt my exhibitions, I work together with an young group of actors, I just write the scripts and they perform..

its composed out of dadaism, surrealism and visionary art....so it is mind destoying, dreams//pictures provoking, showing unconciuos energys and also showing a more fundamental truth, pointing to god...it deals with death and love both personal and transpersonal..

Thanks for the request and The Bees are one of my favourite bands. Browsing through your website, it's very detailed and interesting. Will you consider sharing media files for your films or music anytime soon? Rgds, C

opening animation drums are largely underway
like the jolly green giant is definitely not a vegetarian ... could it be the swing or the supplements? or the shim sham shimmy...
